An intense, intimate, unforgettable play.

"Five Sessions... a war in therapy" by Jaime Estades

It's a psychological play between a recent graduate therapist with a privileged background–trained with clinical tools and good intentions but non-experiential, and a Latino building superintendent during five sessions.

Over the course of five charged therapy sessions, the audience is drawn into a confined space where two individuals collide: labor organizer, and a man on the edge, shaped by grief, exploitation, and systemic neglect.

Also they interact with the Therapist 's Supervisor who is a social worker in the nonprofit world and the Therapist's Boyfriend: A hedonistic Wall Street investment banker. A sociopathic young man with control and abusive behavior.

Directed by Edward Torres

Cast: Ivan Goris, Belange Rodriguez, Bill Blechingberg & Kyle Glenn.

[In English with Spanish supertitles]
