Spring Weekend 2020: Cost of Living (streaming)

Rehearsal for Truth Theater Festival, honoring the playwright and human right activists Vaclav Havel, presents the Pulitzer Prize-winning play by Polish-American Martyna Majok “Cost of Living.” The play examines two separate relationships that develop from places of mutual need. The first is between John, a wealthy and handsome graduate student with cerebral palsy, and his caregiver, the overworked, under-qualified and nearly homeless Jess. The second relationship includes the quadriplegic Ani and her unemployed ex-husband, Eddie. In both of the stories, which eventually collide, the biggest handicaps are the universal ones: fear and disconnection.

Playwright: Martyna Majok. Director: Tyne Rafaeli. Cast: Gregg Mozgala, Xochitl Romero, Felix Solis, Katy Sullivan.

The performance is followed by Q&A. This event will be broadcasted online, live on Zoom. Registration through Eventbrite is required to receive password for free viewing.
