Touching, beautifully-written drama about a Texas farmer who has to choose between his farm, which has been in his family for several generations, and his wife, who is fed-up with their hardscrabble existence. When he chooses the farm he loses the love of his life, only to find another years later. Produced Off Broadway on Theatre Row. NEIGHBORHOOD 3: REQUISITION OF DOOM by Jennifer Haley.
