Maco Staged Reading a Cast for the Existence of God

Past event
Nov 9, 2024, 4 to 6:05 PM

Saturday AND Sunday -- 4pm Byers Studio at Town Hall Theater

This play, A Case for the Existence of God, is particularly relevant given the recent election results. Reserve Tickets at townhalltheater.org

The play unfolds in a cubicle where two seated people unexpectedly choose to bring one another into their fragile worlds. Keith, a mortgage broker, and Ryan, a yogurt plant worker seeking to buy a plot of land that belonged to his family many decades ago, realize they share a "specific kind of sadness." At this desk in the middle of America, loan talk opens up into a discussion about the chokehold of financial insecurity and a bond over the precariousness of parenthood. With humor, empathy and wrenching honesty, Hunter commingles two lives and deftly bridges disparate experiences of marginality.

"[A] must-see heartbreaker of a play." – The New York Times

Critic's Pick! " A Case makes the connection between personal and societal calamity more explicit than ever – it may also be the purest example yet of Hunter's approach to playwriting as an experiment in empathy." – The New York Times
