About the Show

Wallace Shawn pens this timely play from The New Group and Audible Theater, starring Lili Taylor

An unnamed narrator wakes up in a war-ravaged country. She is sick with a fever and has trouble understanding these new circumstances. Cultural icon Shawn Wallace, famous for films such as The Princess Bride and My Dinner with Andre, pens this necessary production that reveals the disconnect between the affluence of some Americans and the intense poverty that haunts so many others. Three-time Emmy Award nominee Lili Taylor (Six Feet Under, American Crime) stars in this profoundly engaging and provocative journey.
