Jaime and Carmine, two childhood friends, reconnect as they sit vigil awaiting the death of Jaime’s grandmother. As Jaime struggles to write his eulogy, he must choose: keep a secret out of love for his grandmother or live his authentic truth. Written by Frank Paz (‘26), The Night of Ended Secrets pits familial obligation against burning desire. How do we choose those who mean the most to us? And how do we live with the consequences?
