Bleed Rail

Directed by Jessica Kubzansky, co-artistic director of The Theatre @ Boston Court, Mickey Birnbaum’s Bleed Rail is a poignant, hilarious lament for a youthful generation for whom the American dream has become an unending nightmare. One man’s desperate attempts to keep his slaughterhouse job, his girl, and his sanity are at the heart of this corrosive, darkly comic look at the bottom of the economic ladder, where meat is more valuable than people.
