About the Show

This short, one-person play grapples with questions about language, identity, religion, and the stories we tell others and ourselves. Part of Theater for the New City's Dream Up Festival.

So a man walks into a lecture room—no wait, there’s no apple. What I mean is nothing is going the way he means, if he even knows what he means. A piece for anyone who has ever felt misunderstood, or felt they might feel understood but weren’t. This is Like That is a one-person play that grapples with questions about language, identity, religion, and the stories we tell others and ourselves. Also, there’s definitely an apple.
