Nurse Play at Boston Playwrights' Theatre

Tucked away in a dark room at the back of a boarding house in the middle of nowhere, Nurse sits, drumming her fingers on the table in front of her and playing the stack of Blondie records she keeps by her feet. Her eyes were gouged out years ago, but no matter. They were only getting in the way. In the bed by her chair is the patient she is charged with taking care of, Joe. Joe has been diagnosed with a degenerative disease that keeps him bed bound, in the dark, and doped up. He also appears to be missing several limbs. The two have been alone together for quite a while. Then Joe vanishes into thin air and things begin take a bit of a strange turn.... Nurse Play, written by Exiled Theatre's co-founder James Wilkinson, receives its world premiere at the Odyssey Theatre in Boston.
