Well

Written by Lisa Kron
Directed by Celeste Thomas
Early in the play, Lisa Kron describes WELL as “a multi-character theatrical exploration of issues of health and illness both in the individual and in a community.â€* At least that’s what Lisa thinks the play is about. Her mother ultimately takes over the loosely structured plot and, with the help of four other actors, undermines Lisa’s plan and reveals what it takes to build a strong community. As audiences everywhere have found, WELL is “a drama of depth, infectious humor and great humanity.â€* (Robert Hurwitt, San Francisco Chronicle)
A study of the fallibility of memory, of human communication and of theater itself... with a warmth and accessibility that makes you want to recommend it to everyone. Her richest achievement to date...
