October 26, 2010
- November 14, 2010
7 Stories by Morris Panych.
7 Stories is a life-affirming story about a man searching for meaning. As the lives of the building’s eccentric residents are revealed through nearby windows, the man comes to realize that every one of them has a reason to jump - and that he just may be the most rational of them all.
Written by award-winning international success Morris Panych, 7 Stories is a touchingly funny, surrealist play about what happens when you take your life into your own hands.
