When Carol (Maralyn Ryan) decides for herself to downsize, she is not prepared for the shedding of a lifetime of collecting. Commemorative plates, porcelain dolls, record collections, spoons upon spoons and a life time of collecting art, alll with the intention of being passed on to her children. Imagine her suprise when she is told not only do they not have room, they just don’t want it. People and STUFF. World premiere.
