dentity crisis

 

Recovering from a nervous breakdown, Jane is nursed and nagged by her relentlessly cheerful mother, and confused by her oversexed brother—who keeps changing into her father, her grandfather and her mother's French lover. Eventually, all (including Jane's psychiatrist, who undergoes a sex change operation and swaps places with his wife) change characters again and become Jane herself—leaving her with no identity at all and pointing up the near impossibility of self-identification in our uncertain times.

First presented by the Yale Repertory Theater. An inventive, antic and mercilessly revealing black comedy, which deals harshly with the pretensions of modern psychiatry. "…irreverent mixture of parody, satire, theatre jokes, and nonsense." —New Haven Register. "Durang's writing is short and sharp moments of wit and hilarity." —Variety.

Directed by Kailey Burkhardt
