The Thin Place

by Lucas Hnath

Wirtz Center for Performing Arts Blackbox 101, Northwestern University, 2022

Director: Ethan Karas

Produced by Graybill Partington and the Wirtz Center for Performing Arts at Northwestern University

The Thin Place follows Hilda (Marooney) as she relives a formative relationship with psychic Linda (Marsh) and the doors it opened to her mother, grandmother, and a place where the line between this world and some other world is very… thin. The Thin Place interrogates personal systems of belief slyly, offering you a mug of tea before sitting you down for a ghost story. This play was produced with a creative team made up entirely of undergraduate students, with sponsorship from the Wirtz Center for Performing Arts.
