Portland Playhouse kicks off its 11th Season with Will Eno's Wakey, Wakey. Written during Eno's five year residency at New York's Signature Theatre Company, Wakey, Wakey asks What are we here for?

This funny, moving, and thought-provoking new play challenges the notion of what really matters and recognizes the importance of life's simple pleasures.
