Other People’s Houses
Abbi Waxman’s “Other People’s Houses” is a delightfully witty peek into the lives of four families in a close-knit Los Angeles neighborhood. As the neighborhood carpool driver, Frances Bloom thinks she knows everything about her neighbors, until she accidentally walks in on Anne Porter in a compromising position. Suddenly, the facade of suburban perfection crumbles, revealing the messy, complicated lives behind closed doors. With humor and heart, Waxman explores marriage, friendship, and the secrets we keep, reminding us that sometimes the grass isn’t always greener on the other side of the picket fence.
