As they procrastinate writing a wedding speech for friends, Allison and Caleb confront the messy realities of their own married life. Poetry and prose intertwine as they negotiate memories, searching for where they went adrift and what might renew their relationship.

Listen Together – over evening drinks, after the day is shaken off or kids are in bed, followed by a dance to a favourite tune.
