Shannon Tyo, Sean Patrick Hopkins, and Thomas Pruyn perform this riveting story that begs the question, how well do we truly know the members of our family? Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Kendra Winchester discuss a story Kendra calls one of the best of 2023. Twenty-year-old Mia and her twin brother are home from college during the pandemic. Their father goes missing while at the park with their younger brother Eugene, who is autistic. Tyo perfectly captures Mia’s narrative voice as we follow the frantic search for their father. Hopkins performs journal entries from the father’s perspective, and Pruyn, an autistic performer, narrates Eugene’s point of view.
