relationship with Auggie. She is pregnant throughout the duration of the

she is suspicious of Izzy's ability to raise her own.

and sensible person, but makes some rash decisions throughout the play
because of grief. Howie accuses her of subconsciously trying to "erase"
Danny by selling the house, packing up his artwork, and getting rid of their
dog, even erasing the most recent home video of Danny.
HowieBecca's husband in his late thirties. He is very caring, but has a
hard time dealing with Danny's death, which causes him to be angry and
depressed, though he hides it as much as possible. He obsessively watches
home movies of Danny and thinks that the best way to move on is to try for
another child. He attends group grief counseling meetings. It is implied that
he has an affair with a woman from this group. He does not want to meet
with Jason, whom he blames for Danny's death.

experience to Becca. Her son (Becca's brother, Arthur), a heroin addict, hung
himself at the age of 30. Becca, however, does not want to hear this, as she
feels that the deaths are not comparable. She eventually realizes that her
mother has gone through this as well, and accepts the comfort.

leading to Danny's death. He lives with his mom; his father's whereabouts

memory, which he publishes in the school's literary magazine. He sends this
story to Becca and Howie. He later shows up at the open house, wanting to
talk to Howie and Becca. Howie chases him away, but he later meets with
Becca. He blames himself for Danny's death
