New York City
THE DEATH OF FRANK is the story of Peter, a young, earnest gardener with a desire to save the world, and Natalie, his odd, jaded sister, who tends to like things that hurt her. One of those things is Frank, an older guy with a rough edge and a shady job description. Peter’s world is Natalie, so naturally he wants to save her, but he accidentally falls in love with a linguist named Lynn who tries to teach him that there’s more to life than one’s sister. This is a play about choices made in the face of unavoidable desire; it’s about form and function, sweetness and danger, and passion and articulation.
