“The Obituary,” the latest creation from playwright Benjamin D. Smith, delves into the poignant tale of a father and son grappling with issues of identity, love, and acceptance in a contemporary world, ultimately leading them to a fateful crossroads.

In a narrative where one lifetime proves insufficient, a son is granted a second chance to communicate the unspoken to the departed, unravelling fifty years of enigmatic family history in the process.

Benjamin Smith, an up-and-coming playwright and student enrolled in Harvard’s esteemed Dramatic Studies Program, weaves an enthralling theatrical narrative that peels back the layers of a family’s hidden triumphs and tribulations.
