In an overconnected, information-saturated world, Ashley is struggling. Diagnosed with a condition known as “Hyperempathy”, she finds it difficult to hold a job, maintain relationships, and otherwise cope with the emotional demands of her everyday life. When Ashley is introduced to a new medical procedure known as Neuroclear, she sees a chance to create a new, better version of herself--but not without putting her humanity at risk.
Earlier this year, Much Better emerged as a semi-finalist for the 2017 O’Neill National Playwrights Conference, establishing itself as a strong and relevant literary work among over 1,300 plays. Prior to the O’Neill Conference, Much Better was a finalist in the 2016 Drama League Beatrice Terry Residency.
