By Ernest Thompson Retired couple Ethel and Norman Thayer are spending their 48th summer at their vacation home on Golden Pond. Their relaxing routine is given a bitterly comedic edge when their daughter Chelsea arrives with her new boyfriend Bill, and his teenage son, Billy Jr. The turbulent relationship between father and daughter, the generation gap between young and old, and the struggles of a long marriage, all combine in a play that effortlessly illustrates the hilarious, heartbreaking, human moments of which life is made.
