Dimly Perceived Threats To The System
by Jon Klein

"Here's a play whose point about fractured families goes to the heart, mind—and ears.“ —Washington Post. ”…an end-of-the millennium comedy about a family on the verge of a nervous breakdown…Trenchant and hilarious…“ —Baltimore Sun. ”…Jon Klein's very dark, very trenchant and very funny comedy about family life in the 1990s…[is] a wonderfully quirky and novel look at the American family's disarray and dissolution…Klein's tone…is steeped in dark humor, inviting us to laugh at despair even as we recognize the shards of truth running through it…What makes THREATS so thoroughly enjoyable are the flights of fancy, desire and fear that…envelop its characters."
