Family – September 12-28
“Family courts disgust and other dark emotions as it pries up the floorboards of this family’s history.”

ABOUT
In this grotesque and pitch-dark play by Oscar-nominee Celine Song (Past Lives, The Materialists), three half-siblings mourn their late father and battle over what lies underneath the floorboards. More Possession than Past Lives, this early work of Song’s serves as a surreal parable of America’s psyche. OBIE-winning theater company Hoi Polloi – known for bracing work such as Winning is Winning and White on White – re-envisions their 2024 site-specific production for La MaMa’s architecture, seizing the opportunity to push the psychosis of the play to the max.
