THEATRE SERIES: Hearts Full of Blood

I really want to see this play, but I'm afraid, based on the synopsis below, that I 'know' (we probably all know) what the 'surprise' ending is.

My guess is that there has probably been an affair, an STD, and infertility due to that.

Or maybe I'm just jaded and crazy, lol.

Does anyone know this play, and know for sure what the 'surprise' ending is? If so, please message me. (I don't want to be caught off guard, or make FWH feel ambushed).

PICCOLO SPOLETO THEATRE SERIES:  HEARTS FULL OF BLOOD—(Tragicomedy, 85min) As they struggle to conceive the child they want so desperately, Jacob and Allison find an answer to this continual failure and unearth the one truth that can destroy everything upon which their perfect lives have been built. Sharp biting comedy mixed with a shocking twist you won’t be able to get out of your head. Produced by What If? Productions. (PLEASE NOTE: Parental discretion is advised due to content, language, and/or subject matter).

Reading the synopsis and given the title of the series and the use of the word "biting" (sharp biting comedy) - I think one of them is a vampire. I don't think infidelity would be that shocking, sadly.

Wow Jana, I would have never in a million years thought of that! I guess I'm showing my age, and the fact that I have never been interested in any vampire stuff. I had to stop watching True Blood because it just became too weird for me, lol.

Based on an extraordinary true story

I tried Googling it, and this makes me think that it's not about vampires. I couldn't find any spoilers though, but there is another couple who the main couple is trying to set up.

OK, I'm intrigued now, and based on my google research, I think I'm wrong. I'm just trying to figure out if it's "safe" for BS viewing. If I figure out what the secret is, I won't tell you. Just if it's safe or not.

I can't figure out what the damn secret is but now I'm DYING to see this play.

I can't figure out what the damn secret is

Me either...something to do with pregnancy? Arrggh...PPGA, if you go see this, you have to let us in on the secret!

I have a suspicion but I was wrong with my first guess (I think) so I'm going to keep it to myself. I don't think, given how all the reviews say it's so shocking and must be kept quiet so as not to spoil the play -doesn't sound like an affair to me.

Intriguing!

I can't figure out what the damn secret is but now I'm DYING to see this play.

Get your butt on down here girl and go see it with me! I would LOVE to go see it with another SIer!

And Tred, HI! Long time no see! And this:

PPGA, if you go see this, you have to let us in on the secret!

I'm going to tell everyone but you, lol! JK. Hey check your PM's in a minute or two.

Well, for some reason I can not PM you Tred. Anyway, I was just going to ask if you had tried growning any Shiitakes yet? We had a BUMPER crop a few weeks ago! Sold a bunch!

Hmmm...sent you a PM. Seemed to work from my end.

Okay, I found some review that said that when the 'secret' was revealed, some people in the audience gasped, and some people sobbed. Yikes. Now I'm skeered

I'll play the guessing game, PPGA......

Perhaps one of them was born as a boy/girl and the reason that they can't have a child is because the person was *raised* as the 'wrong' sex, kwim?

How strange that the internet is so tight-lipped about this shocking twist. Do the attendees have to sign some type of confidentiality agreement or something? Geesh. Now I'm dying to know what it is too.

Geesh. Now I'm dying to know what it is too.

Me, too. Do you think you are going to go, ppga? You have to so you can tell us the secret!!!!!!!!

OK since we are guessing - I'm thinking they are biological siblings. The original title was something like "Call of Blood" or something like that. Makes me think they are bio-related.

Please don't be another "Crying Game"...

ETA: It's very interesting that I can't find the plot spoiler anywhere on the internet! Damn...

Wow, those are all good guesses.

I, too, can not believe we can not find a spoiler online. Maybe we are all just crappy at searching.

Here's my guess: maybe they kill all the attendees at the end, and that's why no one lives to tell!

Ah, I just had another thought...

Maybe the husband has had a vasectomy because he secretly doesn't want kids, (or the wife had her tubes tied) and she secretly doesn't really want kids, and the shocking ending is that one of them is a deceptive asshole!

That would be enough to make people cry and gasp!

Here's my guess: maybe they kill all the attendees at the end, and that's why no one lives to tell!

In that case, I'll send some anonymous tickets over to my wife's AP

But back to Sherlocking, in one review I read the wife has had a few miscarriages, which rules out the vasectomy and tube tying. This is beginning to become an interesting mystery...and the husband "gives" the secret to the guy they are trying to set up at the dinner date...hmmmmm...
