A proposal that took place at a funeral, an upcoming wedding, and three goats hardly need any more surprises but that’s what happens in Melisa Annis’ CHARLIE’S WAITING. Louise (Tony Award nominee Xanthe Elbrick) is pregnant and planning her exquisitely-detailed wedding with Kelly (Stephanie Heitman). The unexpected entrance of a visitor (Amy Scanlon) suddenly takes precedence over the decorating of paper lanterns and construction of centerpieces.
 
CHARLIE’S WAITING asks just how blind love can be. It may be able to overlook class differences and unshared secrets but what about trust that is destroyed? Superb acting, fast-paced dialogue, and tight direction (Ludovica Villar-Hauser) will keep you riveted to discover how it all will end.
