A daughter’s road trip with her father becomes a theatrical journey across more than just state lines as both of their pasts rise to the surface, revealing difficult truths

“The Best We Could makes us yperaware of its theatricality, but the premise isn’t fantastical. It’s painfully plausible. It takes emotions and experiences we as humans champion - connection, family, integrity - and flips them on their head.” -New York Theatre Guild

"I started inventing my version of Willy Loman, who has a daughter, a wife and his own philosophies and missed opportunities. I was curious about the unique relationship between daughters and their fathers in conversations around masculinity and patriarchy. I wanted to see what would happen if I wrote a tragedy that made me laugh"-Emily Feldman
