Set in New York at the end of the "Swinging Sixties", Don Baker, the hero of his mother's children's books, "Donny Dark", has been blind since birth. His over protective mother is devastated when he leaves home and moves into his own apartment to claim his independence and pursue his songwriting ambitions. There he meets "actress" Jill Tanner - as free-spirited as a butterfly, moving on from experience to experience. A romance ensues and when his mother meets Jill, her controlling instincts go into overdrive with hilariously touching results. "A lovely play. It is funny when it means to be, sentimental when it is so inclined, and heartwarming." - New York Daily News
