World Premiere Play at Woolly Mammoth - Must Buy PWYW Ticket Online

In this world premiere from Theater J and Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company by playwright Ali Viterbi and directed by longtime Washington stalwart Howard Shalwitz, some of DC’s greatest performers will grace the stage with warmth, heartbreak and the sheer will to protect each other, even as the outside world crumbles.

Woolly Mammoth is offering Pay What You Want tickets for this first night of The World to Come at 8 pm starting at $5. To buy a ticket, go to this link. Click on BUY TICKETS and then CHOOSE YOUR SEATS. There's not a bad seat in the house. Pick a seat and it will ask how much you want to pay starting at $5 plus a $5 fee I think. Still a very good deal for first-class theater.

If there's interest, we'll meet around 6:30 to go to Teaism for dinner.

Play description: The residents of the SeaBreeze Hebrew Home for the Aging carry on as usual: knitting, playing Scrabble, fighting, and falling in love. As the apocalyptic outside world threatens their way of life, Fanny, Barbara, Ruth, and Hal fight to protect the community they’ve built together. Even while battling armored nurses, a wild ostrich, strange prophecies, and their ailing bodies, they find joy in each other’s company. The World to Come is a surprising new epic that reveals how powerful friendship can be as a form of resistance.
