JANUARY 8-10, 2027This eloquent, enthralling, and ultimately shattering play explores the final hour in the life of a woman who has decided that life is no longer worth living. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize, Susan Smith Blackburn Prize, and a Drama Desk award, ’Night, Mother is set in the living room/kitchen of a small house on an isolated country road. The home is shared by Jessie and her mother. Jessie’s father is dead; her loveless marriage ended in divorce; her absent son is a petty thief and ne’er-do-well; her last job didn’t work out, and in general, her life is stale and unprofitable. As the play begins, Jessie asks for her father’s service revolver and calmly announces that she intends to K*ll herself. Directed by Nick Paone.
Content Warning: This production contains frank discussions of suicide, depression, and end-of-life decisions.
