Review: SF MIME TROUPE OPENS 64TH SEASON WITH 'BREAKDOWN' at Various Locations

In an insane society how can we help those struggling with actual mental illness? And who is driving the country insane? The social worker drowning in the bureaucracy needed to help their unhoused client? The news anchor, who feeds anxiety with “breaking news” of daily atrocities and political scapegoating rather than the real “Who, What, Where and Why?” We will meet them and more in our new comedy musical aptly titled: BREAKDOWN - A New Musical. Sometimes it’s not all just happening in your mind.

The shows runs July 1 – Sept. 4, 2023
