Since Emma was a little girl she heard the ghost stories told about her neighbors Walter and Millie Burke - how the couple filled their home with strange things, which drove them mad. Years have passed and Emma finds herself the owner of this house that has sat abandoned for years. She discovers, among the jars of buttons and tubs of forks, a box full of cassette tapes filled with secrets of Walter and Millie. This magical play follows Emma's journey as she uncovers truths about the people she thought she knew.

"...This play is at times spooky, at other times quirky, but always heart wrenching and truthful. I wasn't kidding when I said there wasn't a dry eye in my seat. It is a beautiful kind of sadness, one that allows you to look into yourself, and the world around you and discover what the connection is. Like sound waves travel through a thousand molecules in mere seconds, so can we come to realize the world's secrets and our connection to them."

"...When the payoff comes, it's a good one, tying up many (but not all) of the story's loose ends, and providing a powerful wallop. Much of this has to do with the terrific performances given by Richards and particularly Amy Horan in the final moments, but also in how Tom Horan has crafted the ending, which takes advantage not only of the tapes but of Millie's muteness. It's an extremely satisfactory conclusion, and if you're like me, you'll leave the theater revivified, and in a forgiving mood toward the tedium that went before."

"...As lead, Amy Horan brings a lot of energy to the show; she and Jackson make a convincing urban couple on the rise. The bearded Keith Richards, for his part, may not be as old and creepy as Walter should be (or old and creepy as the guitarist of the same name). But Reichelt does a lot to bring the eeriness, single handedly."
