The Shadow Box
by Paradox Players

Mar. 07 - Mar. 12 (2020)

The play takes place over twenty-four hours, in three separate cottages on the grounds of a large hospital, in the United States. Within the three cabins are three patients: Joe, Brian and Felicity, who are to live with their respective families as they have reached the end of their treatment. They have agreed to be part of a psychological program where they live within the hospital grounds and have interviews with a psychiatrist. Awarded the 1977 Pulitzer Prize for drama.
