It’s time to check in for The Appointment, the critically-acclaimed and outrageous musical satire singing and dancing through the absurdity and hypocrisy of the American abortion debate. After being named to "Best Theater of 2019" lists in The New York Times, New York Magazine and Time Out NY, Lightning Rod Special (Underground Railroad Game) presents this return engagement for a limited run at WP Theater. Using cutting humor, catchy songs and some very lively fetuses, The Appointment unpacks the many systems that disempower groups of people from making informed reproductive decisions with hilarious, devastating and hilariously devastating results.
