Veronica, already scarred by too many failed relationships, finds the world a frightening place. When she dies, she expects to be in heaven but is instead in Limbo where Maryamma and others are intent on getting Veronica back to earth so she can learn the lessons her soul is supposed to learn. With his usual bittersweet, incisive humor, Christopher Durang explores the nature of life and the lessons we all have to learn.
