A profoundly engaging and provocative journey through the awakening of a pampered man’s conscience. Wallace Shawn is a true original, one of the most deeply seeing, sharply writing playwrights we have.

As the author of The Fever, and as a performer of it, I want to say that I found David Shapiro’s rendition of my piece truly amazing and wonderful. In fact I have to admit that I would have loved to do it the way he did it but I wasn’t able to. I really hope that a lot of people get to see it.

David Shapiro delivers the painful truths with invigorating immediacy.

Anyone who leaves this performance without feeling stirred up has not been paying attention.
