HOUSE PLANT
!? WELL THEN WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR
!? LET’S POP THAT SUCKER IN
When his girlfriend moves on, her best friend moves in. Rivals turned roommates unearth common ground in rejection, rootlessness, and retreat. A play about making do, making rent, and making “Art”—while climbing an (imaginary?) mountain.
Maddy produced the world premiere of Sarah Einspanier’s play, directed by Jaki Bradley, as part of Next Door @ New York Theatre Workshop in early 2020.
