Mary Jane
A single mother, Mary Jane, cares for her chronically ill young son, Alex. Amid the beeping monitors, sleepless nights and hospital visits, she remains steadfast in their daily reality with unwavering dedication. Along the way, she finds support from a community of women from her surroundings. In this way, a network forms around her in which each person, from their own beliefs, background and motivations, cares for another.
Mary Jane is the latest play by successful American playwright Amy Herzog. The story is semi-autobiographical and reflects her personal experiences with her daughter’s illness. At its first performance in New York, it was immediately met with critical and public acclaim. In 2024, the production was also nominated for a Tony Award for Best Play.
A production about resilience, unconditional care and the importance of compassion.
Following the highly praised productions A Case for the Existence of God and Hamlet, director Erik Whien now brings the celebrated play Mary Jane to Dutch theatres for the first time, translated by Kim van Kooten, with Charlie Chan Dagelet in the lead role.
