Middletown
Description
As a friendship develops between longtime resident John Dodge and new arrival Mary Swanson, the lives of the inhabitants of Middletown intersect in strange and poignant ways in a journey that takes them from the local library to outer space and points between. Will Eno has been called "a Samuel Beckett for the John Stewart generation" (New York Times); Middletown features a wide array of characters-Cop, Mechanic, Librarian, to name just a few-who together populate the play with his trademark subversive style.
Reviews
"Will Eno is an original, a maverick wordsmith whose weird, wry dramas gurgle with the grim humor and pain of life. "- —Guardian
