How much would you pay to stay alive? As her health deteriorates, Maxine is convinced her daughter is paying Nurse Tina to "nudge" her into the grave before the new estate tax become law. So Maxine proposes a deal of her own, and the wild ride begins, delivering us, as the title suggests, straight to the intersection of America's two inevitables. Darkly comedic, treacherously suspenseful, engaging and provocative.
The cast includes: Ensemble members J. Nicole Brooks and Raymond Fox, Artistic Associate Louise Lamson, and Tony Award-winner Deanna Dunagan.
The creative team includes: John Musial (scenic design), Sally Dolembo (costumes design), Christine A. Binder (lighting design), Rick Sims (sound design) and Mieka van der Ploeg (properties). The stage manager is Rebecca Pechter.
