In the Next Room (or The Vibrator Play)

Final Girls Theater Company's debut production of Sarah Ruhl's IN THE NEXT ROOM OR THE VIBRATOR PLAY NYC's newest women-led indie theater company presents their debut production of Sarah Ruhl's In the Next Room (or: The Vibrator Play). This production, featuring an all-female cast, will be directed by Brooke Hall, assistant directed by Lydia Winter, stage manged by Gabi Benintendi, and produced by Final Girls Theater Company. As the sun sets on the 19th century, it rises on an exciting new era of electricity and...medically induced orgasms? Dr. Givings is a man of science, whose home practice is at the forefront of medical advancements. His offerings to female patients include the newly-invented electric vibrator, a machine that produces "paroxysms" in order to cure bouts of hysteria. But what happens when the women around him realize the non-medicinal power of these "paroxysms," and, even more conceringly, how to achieve them without the help of a doctor?
