What I liked

The writing, stage/prop design, and the relatable characters really connected for me.

What I didn't like

The theater is intimate, which worked really well for this concept, but I’m curious what this could feel like on a bigger stage.

My overall impression

Bedridden is a witty and hilarious journey through a very serious depressive episode of Laura who is afraid to leave her safety net. Who is the main character you may ask? Tough to say…is it Laura? the bed? Is it Jarred? Or one of the many visitors who aim to lift Laura’s spirits? Trick question, it’s all of the above. Accompanied by the sharp-witted writing and the impressive set design, the actors bring this shocker to life with impeccable timing and comedic relief. The shocking finish will leave you cackling and wanting more. Cannot recommend enough!
