THE HOW AND THE WHY Begins at CoHo This October
Two evolutionary biologists: one an eminent scholar and professor, the other an anxious student with a radical thesis. They are connected by more than just their focus on the female reproductive system - a fertile subject since scientists agree on the how of menstruation, but not the why.
From the writer of House of Cards and In Treatment, this fascinating play is a collision of two sharp minds in an embodied, emotional debate. The Grandmother Hypothesis vs. Toxic Sperm Theory. First Wave vs. Third Wave. Nature vs. Nurture. Genetics vs. Family. Only the fittest survive.
The How and the Why premiered in 2011 at Berlind Theatre at McCarter Theatre Center in New Jersey with oscar winner Mercedes Ruehl. It went on to be produced at InterAct Theatre in 2011, Penguin Theatre in 2012 and Chicago's Timeline Theatre Co in 2014. It is featured in Aurora Theatre's current season in Berkeley.
