Artie Anderson wouldn''t call himself lonely, not exactly. He has a beautiful apartment in the West Village, a steady career as a ghostwriter, and he has Halle and Vanessa, who - as the daughter and ex-wife of his former partner - are the closest thing he can call family. But when the women announce a move across the country, on Artie''s 60th birthday no less, Artie realizes that his seemingly full life isn''t quite as full as he imagined. To make matters worse, a surprising injury strips Artie of the independent lifestyle he''s used to and pushes him into the hands of GALS, the local LGBTQ senior centre down the street. Since the death of his ex-boyfriend, Abe decades ago, Artie''s intentionally avoided big crowds and close friends. So, he''s woefully unprepared for the other patrons of GALS, a group of larger-than-life seniors who insist on celebrating each and every day. They refuse to dwell in the past, but Artie, who has never quite recovered from Abe''s death and the loss of his dearest friends, can''t shake the memories of his youth, and of the chances he did, and didn''t, take. Stretching across the 1990s and the present day, Four Squares is an intimate and profound look at what it means to create community and the lasting impressions even the most fleeting of relationships can leave. With Bobby Finger''s signature warmth, humour, and wit, it is touching reminder that it''s never too late for a second chance at truly living.
