In the Next Room (or The Vibrator Play)
by Sarah Ruhl
directed by Laura Gordon
Described by Variety as a "Serenely funny new work" that "sparkles with wit and invention", Ruhl's Tony-nominated play In the Next Room (or the Vibrator Play) is an exploration of love, longing and science in a time of invention and discovery. In a 19th century home, a doctor's new treatment for "hysteria" is capturing everyone's attention, including that of his wife. As she overhears his patients' sessions in the next room, they awaken feelings of her own—but can Mrs. Givings break through the wall between minds and hearts, husbands and wives? This thought-provoking, funny and touching play about marriage and intimacy is sure to be the buzz of the city!
