Playing @
The Pershing Square Signature Center
480 West 42nd Street, New York City, NY 10036
In the overwhelming quiet of the woods, six runaways from city life embark on a silent retreat.

As these strangers confront internal demons both profound and absurd, their vows of silence collide with the achingly human need to connect. Filled with awkward and insightful humor, this unique and compassionate new play asks how we address life’s biggest questions when words fail us.

Direct from its critically acclaimed, sold-out engagement at Ars Nova, it’s the quiet show that everyone is talking about.  An uplifting and uproarious new play written by Drama Desk Award winner BESS WOHL (Pretty Filthy) and directed by Obie Award winner RACHEL CHAVKIN (Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812).

Written by Bess Wohl 
Directed by Rachel Chavkin
