Basement Productions

For exactly a year, after the death of one of their husbands, the Burke sisters have refrained from seeing, talking to or even texting each other. That is all going to change today, as the sisters meet in the dead husband’s local to celebrate the end of the mourning period. The recently widowed, much changed, guilt-ridden, Carmel Burke, has a potentially life changing plan that could alter her younger sisters lives forever.

Can all the Burke Sisters make it through the day alive, or will one of them be joining the dead husband?
