(PLAY) Wintertime explores the joy, pathos, and vast power of love—with its capacity to both save and destroy us. Set in an idyllic woodland vacation home just before New Year's Eve, the play follows four couples (and some unexpected guests) as they struggle with their hopes, disappointments, passions, and each other.
