By: Tyler Peterson Feb. 01, 2016
The Theatre Group at SBCC will continue the 70th anniversary season with IN THE NEXT ROOM or THE VIBRATOR PLAY by Sarah Ruhl, March 2-19, 2016 in the Garvin Theatre.
The Theatre Group at SBCC's next production of the 70th Anniversary season will be In the Next Room or the vibrator play, a comedy about marriage, intimacy and electricity by Sarah Ruhl, Directed by Rick Mokler, March 2-19, 2016 in the Garvin Theatre.
In a seemingly perfect, well-to-do Victorian home, proper gentleman and scientist Dr. Givings has innocently invented an extraordinary new device for treating "hysteria" in women (and occasionally men): the vibrator. Adjacent to the doctor's laboratory, his young and energetic wife tries to tend to their newborn daughter-and wonders exactly what is going on in the next room. When a new "hysterical" patient and her husband bring a wet nurse and their complicated relationship into the doctor's home, Dr. and Mrs. Givings must examine the nature of their own marriage, and what it truly means to love someone.
In the Next Room or the vibrator play will feature: Blake Benlan, Paul Canter, Addison Clarke, Joshua Daniel Hershfield, Ellen Humphreys, Tiffany Story, and Danah Williams.
