Media Arts Council (MAC) continues its new playreading series with Some Assembly Required by Toby Teiger
When Madeline Munzel wakes up trapped with her estranged ex-husband, she assumes she’s in Hell. But when she discovers that they’re actually stuck in a mourning machine that saves copies of dead loved ones, she must work with her former spouse and the boy who put her there to figure out how to escape. A play about how far we will go to hold onto the things and people that we love… and what it means to let go.
Directed by Reva Stover
