“A trenchant domestic drama revolving around the potential pain a married couple can inflict on one another, Michael Weller's Fifty Words isn't for the faint of heart. With their son gone to his first sleepover, Adam and Jan are about to embark on their first night alone in years in their Brooklyn brownstone. Will it revitalize their relationship or simply boil down to hellfire? Weller nails the complexity of emotion between a couple firewalled by the presence of a child they don't want to psychologically damage. But within each other, a fervency teeters between love and hate, and sex and violence.”

GableStage says:
When their young son is away on his first sleepover, a married couple has their first night alone together in years. Will they renew a vital spark that's been nearly smothered - or will provisional civility explode into fiery chaos? An expansive look at modern marriage that is alternately funny and frightening.
