Axis Company (1 Sheridan Square, just off 7th Avenue) invites you to the 10th installment of its annual downtown cult favorite Hospital serial. This episodic multimedia play examines the interior life of a man in a terminal coma. Entering this state in a different way every year, the audience travels with him as he roams the vast, dark interiors of his own brain. Although Hospital is a serial play, each evening can be viewed separately as a self-contained, short play. The serial runs June 11 - July 25 at Axis Theater.
