Set in Ashland, Oregon, a sophisticated, progressive town of 20,000. This modern drama tells the story of a mature man and woman struggling to find–one last time–the beauty and passion of youthful innocent love against the backdrop of a world that seems more cynical than idealistic.
Is it possible for Paul and Maggie to reach across the divides of despair, family dysfunction, and today’s political and environmental chaos to find the love and personal connection that they both long for? Or is it too Late to Love?
“Ms. Severeid is luminous as Maggie, a world-weary doctor who is struggling to find a reason to keep fighting what she sees as a losing battle. Mr. Kelly is charming and tender as Paul, an aging OSF actor who longs to find meaning in his life…in the end what they find is each other. ”
