"Sparkling and unpredictable...Bachner's writing is so sassy, serious, and theatrical you'll be hanging on nearly every word...Benny proves that it's pure caviar."

BENNY
a new play by Suzanne Bachner
directed by Trish Minskoff

A diagnosis, a broken marriage and a lifetime of displacement send a young woman on a reluctant journey of self-discovery. Benny is a kaleidoscopic theatrical portrait of Anna: a girl looking for a road to her birth parents and one that will take her home. The New York Times raved that Bachner and Minskoff’s last dramatic collaboration was “ingenious…it is no accident that so many of the sharp jokes come as complete surprises.”
