After winning the Weissberger New Play Award from Williamstown and making stops at the Geffen, Barrington, Chautauqua, and Audible, Tiny Father will have its first-ever reading in NYC. Daniel’s off-and-on friends-with-benefits situation takes an unexpected turn when he suddenly finds himself the sole parent to a micro-preemie in the NICU. But over the course of his tiny daughter’s long hospital stay, he befriends a tough-love night nurse named Caroline and begins to learn the ins and outs of becoming a father. Exploring the tension between parents, healthcare professionals, and hospitals, Tiny Father is a hilarious and heartfelt battle-of-wills based loosely on playwright Mike Lew’s own experience with NICU life.
