Summary:

Baby Jessica’s Well-Made Play is a five-act phone adventure to the bottom of a well and out again.

Inspired by “America’s Baby” herself, this highly interactive, intimate, and conversational phone performance for one uses the true story as an excuse to discuss fear, hope, imagination, culture, and memory. Over the course of an audio-recording, live performances, and a secret fifth act that’s months in the future, audience members will discover what waits for them in the dark. 

Baby Jessica’s Well-Made Play will be performed for one audience member at a time, from the comfort of their own homes.
