Bill Bozzone

Rose, an old Black man who is as dilapidated as his tourist trap Florida cottages, is facing closure for health and safety violations when a punk kid skateboards in and a woman is dumped off by her son at the insistence of his floozy bride. The kid has no place to go and becomes a surrogate son who helps Rose fix up the place. The old lady has amnesia and thinks Rose is her husband and the kid is their son.

"Very funny... Mr. Bozzone... has an ability to spin cockamamie jokes almost nonstop in Act I and to create arresting characters."
"A beguiling fairy tale for adults. Bozzone writes with breezy wit and imagination."
