THE CAREGIVERS

“The most satisfying standing ovation I’ve ever experienced.” - Alaina Mabaso, Broad Street Review

Directed and Created by Nell Bang-Jensen
Produced by Pig Iron Theatre Company
June 2018

In search of care for her husband Bill, Evelyn finds herself on an unexpected journey––to an island where no one ever gets sick, a Peruvian bakery that boasts the perfect loaf of bread, and back in time to the 1960's where she first met Bill at a Synagogue dance. Led by Pig Iron Associate Artistic Director Nell Bang-Jensen, The Caregivers is a new play created by home health aides, hospice workers, and family caregivers that explores the spaces where love meets obligation.
