Story for The Pill – A Family Memoir
When Sylvia accidentally takes her anorexic daughter’s antidepressant, panic and pandemonium ensue. A story about the cataclysms of depression, fear, and anxiety, and their dynamic intersections with an eating disorder and suicidal ideation. The Pill is a true story written by 5 members of THE FAMILY – a comic and tragic mash-up of three generations take on living and dying in a post-truth dysfunctional world.
The Pill features an ensemble cast of actors led by NYMF Award-winner for Outstanding Performance Zoe Wilson (Play Like A Winner, Orange Is the New Black) as Leni and Obie Award-winner Winsome Brown as the family matriarch, Sylvia. The pair are joined onstage by celebrated Australian comic tour-de-force Amanda Bishop, Joshua Turchin (A Christmas Story), Broadway veteran Roger Rathburn (No, No, Nanette), Drama Desk Award-winner Graham Stevens (In Transit), and Adam Patterson.
