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.
