On the best day of his life, Walter Griffin built a flying machine that reached the clouds. Ever since, he's tried to recapture that moment of feeling completely free. His son Mikey dreams of a different path to freedom: getting rich. His wife Helen dreams of a husband who will keep his feet on the ground. UP is a quirky, bittersweet tale about an American family trying to escape the boundaries of the everyday by harnessing the power of the imagination.

In this dark, “romantic” comedy, a newlywed couple fixes up two romantically-challenged friends on a blind date: wife’s best friend, meet husband’s sexy and strange new co-worker. When an evening calculated to bring happiness takes a dark turn, crisis and comedy ensue in a wickedly funny play that asks what we owe the people we love and the strangers who land on our doorstep. At 17, Becky Shaw had looks, brains, charm, and a full scholarship to an Ivy League school; now, she’s an office temp with a barren personal life. How did that happen?
