SUMMARY:The Cost of Living
DESCRIPTION:With warmth\, humor\, and sharp insight\, Martyna Majok’s Cost of Living offers a candid and thoughtful exploration of the forces that bring people together. \nAfter a life-altering accident\, Ani reconnects with her estranged husband Eddie\, transforming their relationship from one of separation to caregiving. John\, a wealthy PhD candidate with cerebral palsy\, doesn’t hesitate to challenge his support worker\, Jess—a fellow graduate student and night-shift bartender—about her motives for taking the job. \nThrough the intertwined lives of four unlikely individuals seeking connection\, Majok’s Pulitzer Prize-winning play exposes the profound tenderness and emotional cost of being human. \nFeaturing a talented ensemble cast\, including Rachel Edmonds (When You Wore Braces)\, Mabel Li (Safe Home)\, Aaron Pedersen (Mystery Road)\, and Oli Pizzey Stratford (Neighbours)\, Cost of Living delves into the core of human connection and the universal need to care for one another and ourselves.

SUMMARY:Your Name Means Dream
DESCRIPTION:Your Name Means Dream weaves a tapestry of love\, longing\, and identity. Set against the backdrop of a mythical Latin American village\, the play explores the lives of characters whose dreams and realities intertwine in a magical and poignant journey. Rivera’s lyrical storytelling and rich character development create a moving and unforgettable theatrical experience. \nYour Name Means Dream by Oscar nominee and Obie-winning Jose Rivera (The Motorcycle Diaries) will take the stage in October. \nIn a world where the line between humanity and machine is blurring by the second\, the play examines how we live\, die\, and form our sense of self. \n“Five ladies quit on me in the last year. So they send the machines. The fucking\, soulless\, plastic fuckin’ machines.” \nAislin is getting older in a world that is becoming increasingly unfamiliar to her. Her caregiver Stacy is perfectly toned\, ageless\, and utterly in control. She’s also a robot. While Aislin suffers the inevitable indignities of being human\, Stacy wonders what she’s missing out on. \nDirected by multiple Green Room Award and Matilda Award nominee\, Kat Henry\, and featuring Red Stitch ensemble member Caroline Lee\, the play will open on 26 October and run through until 24 November\, rounding out the season. \nRed Stitch Artistic Director\, Ella Caldwell\, said “I’m very proud to return two celebrated productions to our stage\, answering demand from audiences and enabling artists to deepen their work. 2024 at Red Stitch also offers a compelling array of fresh premieres; every single one is a gem. These scripts are exhilarating and exceptionally well written; they demand the intimate\, hard-hitting performances we’re known for at Red Stitch. It’s going to be a powerful year in the theatre.”
