This award-winning play follows Mary Swanson as she moves to Middletown and gets to know its curious inhabitants. Hilarious yet beautiful, Middletown is a quirky and touching exploration of birth, death, and everything in between.

“Good morning.

I was hoping to get a library card.”
“Good for you, dear.

I think a lot of people figure, why bother?

I’m just going to die anyway.”

When Mary Swanson moves to Middletown, it seems as humdrum as a small American town can be: “Population: stable; elevation: same.

The main street is called Main Street.

The side streets are named after trees.” But as she befriends townsfolk like Librarian the librarian, Cop the cop, and the peculiar John Dodge, she begins to question if anything is truly ordinary.

Hilarious yet beautiful, Middletown is a quirky and touching exploration of birth, death, and everything in between.

Performances are April 24-26 and April 30-May 2 at 8pm on the Loeb Mainstage.

Tickets ($8 students and seniors/$12 general admission) are available at the door, by phone at 617.547.8300, or online at bitly.com/middletownhrdc.
