Melancholy Play:

A Contemporary Farce

HHR_WHITE_MaxSize.png

Contrary to its title, this bubbly and whimsical comedy from the acclaimed playwright of The Vibrator Play will make you fall in love with love.

 

Tilly, a bank teller, is consumed by a melancholy so exquisite that everyone she meets becomes infatuated with her; her tailor, her hairdresser, and even her therapist succumb to the allure of her perpetual sadness. But when Tilly inexplicably discovers happiness, her joy wreaks havoc on the lives of her paramours.
