Halfway Bitches Go Straight to Heaven (Tcg Edition)

Stephen

Adly Guirgis brings his prodigious gifts for exploring the lives of

social outcasts to new heights in this play about the inner workings of a

women's halfway house in New York City. In a shelter on the Upper West

Side of Manhattan, the unmoored residents struggle with addiction,

abuse, mental illness, and neglect. Between daily therapy sessions, they

clash with the staff and each other, form alliances, and fall in love.

All the while, they live under constant threat that the place they call

home may soon be shuttered at the behest of their wealthy neighbors. By

turns harrowing, humorous, and heartbreaking, Halfway Bitches Go Straight to Heaven roaringly brings to life the experiences of women who society has tried to shuffle out of sight and out of mind.
