Cost of Living with ASL Interpretation

Cost of Living Trustus Theatre advertisement

It's opening week for Trustus Theatre's production of the Pulitzer Prize willing play, Cost of Living! Able South Carolina is proud to partner with Trustus to provide ASL interpreters during three shows. 

One of the most powerful shows of 2018 is now at the Trustus Side Door Theatre. Eddie, an unemployed truck driver, reunites with his ex-wife Ani after she suffers a devastating accident. John, a brilliant and witty doctoral student, hires overworked Jess as a caregiver. As their lives intersect, Majok's play delves into the chasm between abundance and need and explores the space where bodies—with or without disability—meet each other. 

Cost of Living ASL Interpreted Shows:
 
Opening Night, Friday, February 22 · 8:00 PM
Sunday, February 24 · 3:00 PM
Saturday, March 2 · 2:00 PM 

Trustus Theatre
520 Lady St., Columbia, SC 29201 


"If you don't find yourself in someone onstage in "Cost of Living," you're not looking." - NY TIMES.

Martyna Majok's Cost of Living, is a play about love, class, intimacy, and loneliness. It dips in and out of these themes in a way that is moving and unexpected. It isn't necessarily a play about disability, it just so happens that two of the four characters are people with disabilities—as are the actors who play them: Bauer Westeren and Kathy LaLima.
