Content Transparency Statement
Playwrights Horizons recognizes the importance of the well-being of all our audience members, and is committed to sharing information about topics and/or sensory experiences which people may find distressing or inaccessible in advance of attending our productions or events.
Rheology takes the form of a physics lecture interwoven with personal storytelling. The production contains mature content, including:
-
Discussion of illness, aging, and death
-
Themes of grief and the anticipated loss of a parent
-
Simulated medical distress, including choking and coughing
-
References to cremation, human remains, and the physical processes of the body after death
Rheology includes moments of audience interaction as part of the lecture-style presentation. A performer may be seated among the audience and speak from within the house.
If you have any specific questions about content, age-appropriateness, or stage effects (such as strobe lights or theatrical fog) not listed that might have a bearing on patron comfort, please utilize our Access Needs Form or email audienceservices@phnyc.org.
