Alison Larkin is a best-selling Novelist, and Comedian. She found true love for the first time in her 50’s with an Indian climate scientist who had also immigrated to the US.
Then he died.
But something wildly unexpected happened.
Instead of wanting to hide under the bed and never come out, Alison found herself wanting to live and love more fully than ever before. When Archbishop Desmond Tutu found out about it, he insisted she write this show.
