Description
Cost of Living by Martyna Majok is a powerful and haunting drama that challenges our perceptions of those living with disabilities. The play delves into the complexities of class, race, nationality, and wealth, revealing how these factors can create deep divisions between people.
The story follows two characters, Eddie and Ani, who are brought together by circumstance after a terrible accident leaves Ani quadriplegic. Meanwhile, John, a brilliant PhD student with cerebral palsy, hires Jess, a young woman from a difficult background, as his new aide. As their lives intersect, the play raises important questions about connection, community, and what it means to be human.
This Pulitzer Prize-winning drama is a thought-provoking exploration of the human experience, one that will resonate with anyone who has ever struggled to find their place in the world.
