DAD’S HOME reflects on the complex emotions of grief and loss, but also balances these heavy themes with moments of humor and levity. The play’s characters are fully realized and multi-dimensional, and they often use humor as a coping mechanism to deal with their pain. This creates a nuanced and realistic portrayal of the human experience, where laughter and tears often go hand in hand.
