In the Glare

Written and directed by Graham Schmidt

Presented as part of the 2017-2018 Director’s Studio

In the Glare is a documentary theatre piece exploring medical trauma from the physicians’ perspective. How do they experience the deaths of patients? How does suffering wear them down? How does it make them better healers? Drawing on interviews with physicians and hospital personnel, In the Glare invites us to rethink about the ways we encounter suffering and grief.

This presentation of In the Glare gives audience members an inside look at the continued development of this piece. This is a workshop production with some scenes fully realized and others presented as a staged reading. 

The running time for In the Glare is approximately 40 minutes. There is no intermission. The play is recommended for ages 13 and greater.
