That Face is a powerful and darkly comic look at an affluent family in freefall. Mia has been suspended from boarding school. Her brother, Henry, has dropped out altogether. And Martha, their mum, manipulates them all. Money can no longer fix their problems -- now it's up to them. This Olivier Award-nominated play from Britain’s fastest-rising young playwright premieres in New York with the director of last season's acclaimed Blasted. The cast features Elizabeth Marvel, who won raves for her performance in MTC’s Top Girls.
