In the Next Room

by Sarah Ruhl

directed by Harriet Power

It is the dawn of the age of electricity in the 1880s, when the Victorian household of Dr. and Mrs. Givings is complicated by a new discovery. The Doctor is a single-minded devotee of progress who has innocently invented a new treatment for “hysteria”: the vibrator. His wife is a new mother and bystander listening from the other side of the door as he implements his curious new cure. Written by MacArthur “Genius” award-winning playwright, Sarah Ruhl, this heartfelt, provocative, and funny play harkens back to a time of discovery and examines the human hunger for connection.

Best enjoyed by ages 18+ due to mature themes.
