Meryl Streep, Swoosie Kurtz and Jill Eikenberry star as former classmates at a reunion seven years after their graduation from Mount Holyoke College, who assess whether they have achieved their youthful goals. In a flashback, the friends - all part of a group dubbed "uncommon" because they were expected to be "amazing" before they reached thirty - relive their senior year and examine the influences that shaped them. Playwright Wendy Wasserstein's first play illustrates facing adulthood at the height of the women's movement.
