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
