Ever So Humble

A play in two acts - 5 men, 2 women


EVER SO HUMBLE is a comedy, inspired by E.M. Forster's Howards End.


An expired New York City sublet leaves Nick and his two best friends, Bobby and Dana, with no place to live. Enter Howard - a loveable, but lonely man with a house in Brooklyn. Charmed by the homeless threesome, Howard offers his assistance and friendship, introducing Nick and company to a variety of new opportunities as they move forward in their search of a place to call home. Relationships blossom and hilarious complications arise, as Howard's house in Brooklyn becomes the source of a sticky dilemma for his heirs and his new friends. Ever So Humble takes its heart from Forster, exploring the connection of people to a place, class differences, and the conflict between the practical and the romantic.


Poignant, but smart and sassy, Ever So Humble is a very funny and touching reminder that our home and our family are what we make them. 


Ever So Humble had its world premiere at the Hangar Theatre in 2011, under the direction of Peter Flynn.
