From The Idea Hole: Keep It In The Family

Okay, this is a quick one, just a little idea for a dark comedy I had that I think might make a good one act play, or maybe a small scale indie movie. Its called Keep It In The Family, and it starts with an elderly married couple discussing the horrible secret they just discovered about their son and his fiancee. It turns out that the girl their son is marrying is in fact the daughter they gave up for adoption a few years before they had their son, who they decided to keep. The two adult children do not know that they are siblings, but their parents have invited them to dinner to break the news. Complications arise when the two young lovers reveal their own big news, that she's pregnant with their first unknowingly incestuous child.

And Wacky Hi-jinx Ensue.
