The current season includes a six-play main stage season, student/senior matinees, unique special events, educational tours, Project Pastime – an educational theatre program for the mentally challenged youth and seminars that encourage community dialogue.

Pulitzer and Tony Award-nominated writer Sarah Ruhl’s show “In the Next Room (Or the Vi****or Play)” looks at women’s health care in the late 19th century through the lens of Dr. Givings, who uses a massage device to induce “therapeutic paroxysms” and treat “female hysteria.” Preview the show at https://www.tucsonweekly.com/affiliatecontent/affiliate-content/19th-century-health-care-invisible-theatre-presents-in-the-next-room-or-the-vi****or-play.

IN THE NEXT ROOM, or the vi****or play 🕯️
Victorian medicine meets modern hindsight. Sarah Ruhl’s Pulitzer-nominated play takes us inside a 19th-century doctor’s office — where a new “treatment” for hysteria puts a groundbreaking device into women’s hands, and changes everything about pleasure, intimacy, and power.
