Who Played Ensemble in The Yellow Wallpaper

Ensemble is a role in The Yellow Wallpaper, a play that opened Off-Broadway in 2025.

Based on Charlotte Perkins Gilman's iconic short story, The Yellow Wallpaper centers on Jane, a 19th-century woman suffering from post-partum depression. She is prescribed "The Rest Cure," a treatment for so-called "female hysteria" that restricted patients to months of isolation. Confined in a room covered with yellow wallpaper, Jane begins to hallucinate that a woman is trapped inside the walls. First published in 1892, Gilman's story sent shockwaves through the culture, launching a medical Me Too moment for women subjected to The Rest Cure. More than a century later, the work continues to resonate with the inequities in women's healthcare and bodily autonomy.
