Publisher's Synopsis

Annie Baker's mesmerising exploration of the frailty and loneliness of human experience.

The week after Thanksgiving. A bed and breakfast in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. A cheerful innkeeper. A young couple struggling to stay together. Thousands of inanimate objects, watching.

John is an utterly compelling play, a quietly evolving tale permeated with a kind of magical super-realism.

It premiered at the Signature Theatre, Off-Broadway, in 2015.
