Well

Written by Lisa Kron

Directed by Celeste Thomas

In Well, Kron creates a complex exploration of our assumptions about whether or not we are responsible for our own illnesses.  She draws on stories of her family's history of chronic illness, her own stay in an "environmental ecology clinic," and her subsequent transition to health.  Woven into this are stories of her childhood in a racially integrated neighborhood that was "healed" from decline by her mother's community work.  Kron places herself on stage with the character of her mother along with a chorus of four actors.
