Our fall production The Flu Season from MFA directing candidate Brian Cochrane is coming up!
Will Eno’s The Flu Season is a love story set in a mental health institution. It is also a play about making a play set in a theatre. Hilarious, tragic and often absurd, The Flu Season examines what happens when our feelings change. Should we just keep going on as though nothing’s happened for the sake of others? Do we follow our intuition no matter the consequences? What if our new feelings get the better of our good intentions? There is also group therapy, speaking in tongues and imaginary cake.
