The Contract
Theresa Rebeck
In a dying plant shop in a dying neighborhood, Roger receives a visitor from the past: Megan, the local screw-up, just out of rehab.
He wants nothing to do with this disaster.
Rebeck’s signature wit, intelligence and depth cultivate this riveting play, which asks, "Can a soul beyond saving be saved?"
"The truth and poisonously warped perceptions of it are major themes in Theresa Rebeck’s new play… But this intelligent, compassionate, beautifully acted dramedy is not a downer. Rebeck has spiked her script with comedy."
— The New York Times
"A tale of reinvention… the play once again showcases Rebeck’s remarkable gift for creating complex female characters and putting them at the center of her work."
— Theater Pizzazz
"A gem… Rebeck reminds us terrible things can happen even when care is taken. Yet ultimately it shows an unshakable faith in our ability, as the survivors, to endure — and, eventually, to regenerate."
— The Sun
"Rebeck here weaves a tale of interesting, flawed characters struggling to find their way through their own personal struggles toward each other. With laughter, drama, some wrenching plot developments, and more laughter. Much more laughter."
— New York Stage Review
"The play is relatable, yet deeply personal… everyone can empathize with Josh."
— Broadway World
