Marvin's Room

Tickets and Information

In his critically acclaimed and hilarious offbeat play Marvin's Room, Scott McPherson takes an original look at the irrepressible nature of the human spirit in the face of death. His heroine, Bessie, has her hands full watching after her disabled aunt and trying to keep her bedridden father, Marvin, from swallowing Yahtzee dice. Bessie just wants to make his last few years as comfortable as possible. But when she is diagnosed with leukemia, it is Bessie who will have to learn to depend on others ? namely, her long estranged sister and the arsonist nephew she may have to rely on for a possible bone marrow transplant.
