Synopsis: Pie in the Sky is a dramedy about two women, Margaret, 85 (K Callan), and her daughter Dory, 65 (Laurie O’Brien), who live together in a mobile home in Abilene, Texas. On this particular morning – Dory’s birthday – Mama has awoken early with the overwhelming need to bake her an apple pie. When Dory is awoken by the noise, she reluctantly joins her mother, and together they assemble the pie and chat. While she teaches Dory the old family recipe, Mama reveals her own recipe to life and some long-kept secrets that alter Dory’s understanding of her past. But Mama defiantly justifies her need for secrets, suggesting that the truth isn’t always what it is, but what people believe it to be. Mama brings about a flurry of surprises for Dory’s birthday; and as the pie comes out of the oven, Dory’s world is forever changed.
