An aunt and nephew reunite in Idaho to sell a house and confront the distance between them.
Set on the desolate fringes of a small Idaho town, Little Bear Ridge Road follows a sharp-tongued aunt and her long-estranged nephew as they reunite after years apart. Thrown together by the task of selling a crumbling family home, the two navigate layers of unresolved tension, buried memories, and emotional distance. What begins as a practical obligation slowly reveals itself as an intimate, often darkly funny exploration of grief, isolation, and reluctant kinship.
With a mix of biting humor and quiet intensity, this poignant new play examines what it means to reconnect in a world that feels increasingly disconnected. As the characters wrestle with their shared past and uncertain future, Little Bear Ridge Road offers a raw, honest portrayal of the fragile threads that tie us together—reminding us that love, though imperfect and sometimes terrifying, may be the only force keeping us grounded.
