Denis O'Hare, Anna Paquin, Rhys Ifans, Melissa Leo, Cynthia Nixon and Ed Asner make up the star-studded cast of The Parting Glass, a sensitive drama that follows an Irish-American family coming together and coping with the news of their youngest sister (Paquin, also a producer)'s death as they begin a journey to gather the fragments of her life. Confronting buried emotions and difficult memories, the family tries to make sense of the tragedy and remember the woman they've lost the best way they know how. Making his directorial debut, Stephen Moyer has clearly benefited from his time on the other side of the actor-director relationship, and has nurtured this wonderful cast, including his own wife, to tell this emotionally raw story. In his first screenplay Denis O'Hare, drawing inspiration from his own family and their experiences during a similar situation, has written a story that feels so genuine, it's hard not to connect.

Director Stephen Moyer, Actor Anna Paquin and Producers Mark Larkin, Cerise Hallam Larkin will be in attendance January 5.
