The Fever

What’s the cost of comfort? In The Fever, playwright and actor Wallace Shawn (My Dinner With André, The Designated Mourner) captures the crisis of conscience of a privileged American traveler visiting a war-torn country. Faced with the disparity between her rarified world and the real world, she can’t help but wonder if she’s part of the solution, or part of the problem.

Three-time Emmy Award nominee Lili Taylor (Six Feet Under, American Crime) stars in this profoundly engaging and provocative journey, directed by the New Group’s founding artistic director Scott Elliott.
