Sobre IBD

SLINKY explores the invisible struggle of male eating disorder recovery through an intimate domestic lens. Elias has gained five pounds toward his goal weight of 140, but his controlling mother sees only the twenty pounds he still needs to gain. When he begins dating Lara, he keeps his hospitalization secret, hoping to construct a 'normal' life before the truth emerges. As the relationship deepens and his mother’s interference escalates, Elias must choose between the comfort of being monitored and the terrifying freedom of saving himself.

  • Mississippi Goddamn
    Jonathan Norton
       “Some shows have warnings for strobe lights. Some have them for loud gunshots.  Some for smoke.   MISSISSIPPI GODDAMN, a new play by Jonathan Norton should have one for intensity.   Granted, anyone attending a play about civil rights pioneer Medgar Evers set in 1963 Jackson, Mississippi, should expect some strife. Blood in the battle for racial equality is no surprise, but f...

  • The Lady From Maxim’s
    Georges Feydeau / Laurence Senelick
       “It seems to me that for fertility in droll inventions, the perpetual outpouring of unforeseen misunderstandings, for the inexhaustible gaiety of dialogue, Feydeau’s new play is superior to everything he’s written so far. The most astonishing thing is the sureness with which everything is controlled, explained, justified, in the most extravagant buffoonery. The cross-purpose...

  • Fit For A Queen
    Betty Shamieh
       “Plenty of glamorous backstabbing, diva dissing and sexual double-crossing…has every right to claim the name Dynasty for itself.  But the title character in Betty Shamieh’s bouncy, bumpy comic melodrama is the real thing. A queen, I mean, and not just of the self-dramatizing type. Scratch that. She’s more than a queen. She’s a pharaoh, one Hatshepsut, who reigned over Egypt ...

  • Carnival of Reality
    Allison Whittenberg
    Allison Whittenberg’s characters have a lot of soul. They’re riled up, outspoken, and sometimes even silent, in which case, they’re still saying a lot. They’re convincingly alive and they come at you from the page. In this brilliant mid-career collection, Whittenberg’s The Carnival of Reality investigates the complexities in human relationships from a decidedly black woman’s pe...
