About the Show:
The Humans is a Tony Award-winning play by Stephen Karam that depicts a Thanksgiving dinner with the Blake family at the new apartment of their daughter Brigid in Lower Manhattan. As the night unfolds, the play uses the familiar setting of a family gathering to explore universal fears like old age, economic hardship, illness, and abandonment, blending moments of humor with growing anxiety. The family deals with their own issues, including the grandmother's Alzheimer's, Aimee's recent breakup, and the father Erik's hidden secrets, while dealing with the unsettling noises and atmosphere of their new apartment.
