One House Over is a brilliantly funny and provocative new piece by one of today's hottest playwrights. Joanne, who lives with her elderly father in their suburban Chicago home, is relieved to have help and support when Rafael and Camila Hernandez move in downstairs to tend to her father. But, she can't anticipate the complications that arise when "the help" starts to feel like family...and act like it. It's an empathetic but searing examination of boundaries, power, privilege, and fear in a single backyard.
One House Over begins performances February 27 and runs through March 25 in the Quadracci Powerhouse. Opening night is Friday, March 2 at 8:00 pm. Tickets to this powerful new play are now on sale and can be purchased online at www.MilwaukeeRep.com, by phone at 414-224-9490 or in person at the Ticket Office (108 E. Wells Street).
