Before the Porcelain Breaks

Nadine has just hired Min as a dishwasher at her hip Yemeni-fusion restaurant in Dumbo. Farah dines alone while Mila waits for a delivery order. A young man enters the restaurant and causes a situation that forces a reckoning for each of the women. 

A play about the unwanted burdens we carry and the fractures that occur when we try to let go.
