Abstract
On his way to say goodbye to his sick mother, Nick meets a woman he didn't know he needed to change his life. Grounded is a play about love, loss, strangers, relationships, crossroads, and the gray areas of life. It explores how humans interact on all levels of closeness, and it aims to capture the shared experiences of everyday life that become momentous without us even knowing.

Comments
Grounded was originally written for two actors to perform every role in the play. It is important to note that this piece is as much alive in these actors as it is on the page. The author is excited to see how the story will morph as the script goes through the trials of live theatre performance.
