“One of the most gifted and adventurous American playwrights of our time.” —The New York Times

Sarah Ruhl’s new work is a comedy about love and sex for adults with open hearts and minds. Broadway critics raved: “Inspired and brilliant.” —The New Yorker; “Shamelessly entertaining!” —New York Magazine; “Surprisingly romantic.” —Associated Press.

In an upstate New York spa town in 1885, a gynecologist treats “women’s problems” in his home office through the use of a newly designed (and effective) electric vibrator. His “successes and failures” launch seven curious men and women on a spirited quest for new adventures and happiness.

This very special new comedy is about the politics of desire and sexuality. It is a tender, funny and insightful exploration of the conundrums of love, equality, motherhood, sensory experience, fertility, intimacy and marriage.
