Interviews with couples about what makes their relationships click, acted by solo performer, who seeks his own path to love and family ties. Touching, humorous, and acted with flair.
Steve Budd is a chameleon, masterfully switching between multiple characters in a beautiful mosaic that explores love, spirituality, family, and the all elusive question “are they the one?” Don’t miss it!!!

A story that crosses many boundaries-religious, geographic, and familial- in its insightful exploration of love in mid life. A shapeshifter with aplomb at inhabiting his characters, Steve brings the audience with him on a fun, yet reflective journey.
