Five Sessions (A War in Therapy)

May 22 - 31, 2026

Set in present-day New York City, it traps two persons in a confined theatrical space and dares the audience to witness the collision. Across five charged therapy sessions, Christine Kennedy—a young, white, Ivy-League–trained therapist armed with theory, credentials, and good intentions—faces Vidal “Super” Estrella, a Latino building superintendent, labor organizer, and suicidal man shaped by exploitation, grief, and systemic abandonment. It forces audiences, clinicians, and policymakers alike to confront the inadequacy of care without justice, treatment without rights.
