Info for the show:
ON THE WAY DOWN
A new play by Michael Rudez
Directed by Daniel Waldron
It’s
a summer’s afternoon and all eight million New Yorkers have invaded the
Hamptons for the weekend. Why everyone has come remains a mystery, but
what is clear is that the situation is becoming too much for three of
them to handle. Since graduation from college, Josie, Browning and
Stevenson have made the Hamptons their sanctuary. With this now under
attack combined with the mounting fear that Josie’s husband and
children are later than expected create a turbulent atmosphere in which
one of them pushes the envelope too far, and the audience is left
asking themselves: “how far is too far to go to save someone’s sanity”?
