THE THIN PLACE

by Lucas Hnath
directed by Colin Anderson
October 7 - 30, 2022
Regional  Premiere

8:00pm Performance

THE THIN PLACE is the story of two women, Hilda and Linda. Linda communicates, professionally, with the dead, who are still here, just in a different part of here, in the "thin place." She can make those who believe hear them, offering them peace and closure and meaning. Hilda, a keen listener and observer who’s grappling with loss, takes a great interest in Linda’s abilities. She befriends the veteran medium, seeking answers that lie across the fragile boundary between our world and the other one. Lucas Hnath’s play transforms the theater into an intimate séance, crafting an unnerving testament to the power of the mind.

“Lucas Hnath’s cunning new ghost story, about a psychic and her client, is... compelling and delicious… The Thin Place keeps on haunting because it presses against the deepest human longings not only for connection but also for exposure. We want to know what’s out there, yes, but we also want it to know us.”
