Nan is working the night shift, fielding periodic calls from her retired husband with questions about reheating dinner and where his car keys are.

Jennifer is trying to tune out Joey, her elderly patient who is relishing getting on her last nerve.

And Lili is stressing out about her upcoming SATs.

Set in a Dunkin Donuts on the side of a Massachusetts highway, Morgan Gould’s Jennifer, Who is Leaving is a profoundly relatable exploration of the expectations placed on women; the physical, mental, and emotional labor of being a caregiver; and what happens when we reach our breaking point.
