We Had a World by Joshua Harmon follows a dying woman as she asks her grandson to write a play about their family, urging him to make it as bitter and vitriolic as possible. This deeply personal work captures thirty years filled with family disputes, love, and the comfort of home-cooked spaetzle. Harmon, known for his acclaimed plays like Prayer for the French Republic and Bad Jews, delves into the complexities of family dynamics with both humor and sincerity. The production will be staged at The Huntington's Wimberly Theatre from February 12 to March 15, 2026.
