Five More Chances to See The
WINNER! FringeNYC Outstanding Play Award
...A woman googles "painless suicide" and finds the people who will help her end her life - if she will let them film it. And sell it. VIRAL is a frank, humane and surprisingly funny look at some very complex issues—assisted suicide, fetish, dignity and privacy in the age of viral videos, where there’s nothing so twisted that it doesn’t have an audience.
VIRAL continues for 5 PERFORMANCES ONLY September 14 - 27 as part of the FringeNYC Encore Series.
