We can’t go back in time, but what if we could start over?
Poetic and comic, romantic and deeply philosophical, at its core is Kari, returning to her twenty-year high school reunion carrying the weight of a life she’s settled for. When Peter, the boy who left her after an unexpected pregnancy, reappears with dreams of rewriting their past, Kari is forced to confront not just him, but the stories she’s bought into about love, regret, and who gets to move on. What do we owe our past? Who gets to be forgiven? And what does it mean, finally, to choose yourself?

ABOUT THE PLAYWRIGHT
CRAIG WRIGHT
Craig Wright is an acclaimed playwright and television writer known for his sharp, unflinching portraits of ordinary people in extraordinary emotional circumstances. Orange Flower Water is one of four of his plays set in Pine City, Minnesota—alongside Molly’s Delicious, The Pavilion, and Melissa Arctic—each exploring the complexities of small-town lives, love, and loss. Wright’s plays have been produced across the country, earning him a reputation for creating intimate, deeply human dramas that resonate far beyond their local settings.
In addition to his work for the stage, Wright has enjoyed an impressive career in television. He was a writer and producer on Six Feet Under and Lost, created the series Dirty Sexy Money and Greenleaf, and contributed to Brothers & Sisters. His writing, whether on screen or in the theater, is marked by compassion, candor, and an unblinking look at the choices that define us.
