Eccentric behavior and mental illness are often separated by little more than a razor's edge. The Milk Can Theatre Company looks at both sides of the equation with ML Kinney's full-length comedy Life Among the Natives, a story of coming out and coming to terms with one's roots; and The Disorder Plays, six short works both somber and satirical, about psychiatric disorders and mental illness, presented in one performance. Both shows will be performed in repertory at Urban Stages, located at 259 West 30th Street, beginning May 7th.
