The Footlight Club’s latest play “In The Next Room or the Vibrator Play” opened on Feb. 2nd and runs for six shows through Feb. 17th. The original run of the play was nominated for a Tony Award for Best Play in 2010.
The play is set in the 1880s and focuses on a doctor, his wife and a newfangled type of therapy affects their entire household. The new type of therapy is a vibrator, which was actually used to treat “hysterical” women (and some men) back in the 1880s. So this play is probably not suitable for young kids as it has sexual situations and nudity.
