Immerse yourself in the raw, emotional journey of The Disappointments by Aaron Scully. This powerful production thrusts you into the heart of addiction recovery, where every moment feels like a fight for survival. Follow Second, a young man standing at the crossroads of his life after receiving an ultimatum from his fiancée: stop drinking or lose her forever. As you step into The Good House, the lines between the stage and audience blur. You’ll feel like you’re part of this world, surrounded by fellow patients—the so-called “disappointments”—each grappling with their own battles. Guided by his tough but compassionate counselor, Second navigates a path filled with vulnerability, setbacks, and hard-won victories.
Experience a play that goes beyond the traditional theatre, putting you face-to-face with the painful, messy, and ultimately redemptive process of reclaiming one’s life.
