Second Wind Productions presents the San Francisco premiere of Ian Walker's A Beautiful Home for the Incurable. The play opens the door into the eclectic life of Bunny Temple, an agoraphobe living in New York. Each week, Bunny organizes a get-together of his friends: a narcoleptic, a temporary amnesiac, and an apraxic. When they discover that Bunny is the victim of identity theft and about to be expelled from his home, the four decide to find the thief for themselves, relying on a trail of credit card slips to "re-create the man."

A Beautiful Home for the Incurable explores the issue of powerlessness through the eyes of three unique individuals who are relegated to the sidelines of society by their illnesses. It offers a thoughtful examination of identity in the modern world, and the struggle many people face to free themselves from media images and preconceptions about beauty and self-worth. While often hilarious, the play shows us the shared wounds that create one's personal identity.
