Sisters Bea and Elizabeth live together, eking out a modest existence. Things heat up when Elizabeth’s ex arrives after escaping from a prison farm and then moments later, Bea’s supposedly dead husband shows up on the doorstep. Chaos and confusion reign as the sisters try to hide their respective former brothers-in-law from each other.

A staged reading of Husband? What Husband? took place in 2017 at the Richcraft Theatre, Shenkman Arts Centre, Ottawa Ontario, by Tale Wagging Theatre, directed by André Dimitrijevic. The reading received an ARTicipate Endowment Fund grant.
