Playing @
Access Theatre
380 Broadway - 4th floor, New York, NY 10013
Set in the Lower East Side of the 1980's, and loosely based on real experiences, The Sickness follows two artists lost in the mad hell of heroin addiction. 

Set in the Lower East Side of the 1990's, the play is structured from the idea of The Odyssey, only aboard a Ship of Fools, without beginning or goal, going nowhere, lost in mad pursuit of an Ithaca that cannot be found, sailing only for the incontinence and lunacy that waits at the frontiers of the “visceral rush of oblivion.”
