IN THE NEXT ROOM OR THE VIBRATOR PLAY ~ presented by Gnarly Bard Theater Company

Oct 20, 2024 @ 2:00 pm

$30

Set in the 1880s at the dawn of the age of electricity in a seemingly perfect, well-to-do Victorian home, proper gentleman and scientist Dr. Givings has innocently invented an extraordinary new device for treating “hysteria” in women (and occasionally men): the vibrator. Adjacent to the doctor’s laboratory, his young and energetic wife Catherine tries to tend to their newborn daughter-and wonders exactly what is going on in the next room. When a new “hysterical” patient, Sabrina, and her husband bring a wet nurse and their own complicated relationship into the doctor’s home, Dr. and Mrs. Givings must examine the nature of their own marriage, and what it truly means to love someone.

“In the Next Room or the vibrator play” was a Pulitzer Prize Finalist and a 2010 Tony Award nominee for Best New Play.

“In the Next Room or the vibrator play” is presented by 

arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French, Inc.
