Steppenwolf's season debut marks the company's first collaboration with Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright David Lindsay-Abaire. Nominated for Best Play at the 2011 Tony Awards, Good People centers around Margie, a single mother in Boston's Southie neighborhood who is fired from her cashier position at a local dollar store. Realizing that she and her daughter are facing an impending monetary crisis, Margie turns to help from her ex-boyfriend, Mike, a doctor who lives in a very different social and economic strata. Good People is the newest drama by the playwright, who won the 2007 Pulitzer Prize for his work Rabbit Hole. Ensemble member K. Todd Freeman directs.

Amy Herzog's Nail-Biting Thriller Belleville

Full Price:
$44.00 - $47.00
Our Price:
$22.00 - $23.50

Amy Herzog's new play follows a young, hip expat couple living in Belleville, the coolest up-and-coming neighborhood in Paris. But beneath the surface of Zack and Abby's enviable life, unrest simmers. When an encounter in their apartment causes upheaval, the tense relationship boils over revealing its feeble foundation. This psychological drama asks unsettling questions about the power of a lie, and has been hailed by the New York Times as "thrillingly good." Herzog's 4000 Miles won an Obie Award for Best New American Play and was a finalist for the 2013 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. Learn More

The play is riveting because it is thought provoking and makes each one of us think about our response and attitude if faced with the same life experience. Extremely profound!
