THE EFFECT

By Lucy Prebble
Directed By Alison Ruth

Featuring Christina Baldwin, Kamani Graham, Becca Claire Hart, & Greg Watanabe

March 1 - 30, 2025

When Connie and Tristan sign up for a clinical trial to test a new antidepressant, they fall for each other—hearts racing, knees buckling—hard. But are their feelings real or nothing more than a dopamine-fueled side effect?

Lucy Prebble’s (Succession) razor sharp writing keeps audiences guessing, asking which is more powerful—the head or the heart?

The Neighborhood Improv

Featuring Meredith Dylan, Ruben Gomez, Ike Okafor, Karyn Wilson, Meghan Wolff, Rita Boersma, Michael Rogers, Adam Mellerup

March 31, June 2, August 11

Welcome to The Neighborhood - where storytelling and improv join forces! Featuring people from the community telling real-life stories on stage, improvisors then use those stories as inspiration for scenes. 

Each month, The Neighborhood features a local group to kick off the performance. After a brief intermission, the night’s storyteller and team of improvisers then create a show never before seen onstage. 

Stick around after the show as The Neighborhood hosts an improv jam, where audience members and performers are invited to play together — on stage!

FROM OUR JUNGLE ARTISTS:

With all that is happening in our world, we at the Jungle Theater want to encourage you to take a moment to connect and revel in all the things that expand our world—courage, compassion and creativity. Today we are finding respite in the form of celebration. Celebration of the art we make, the community we build, and the people who support our endeavors.

 

NEW FROM OUR BLOG: Creating Raushen

Designing for theater is a crucial part of the storytelling process, creating a world to actors to exist, but also to better help audiences understand the subject matter of the show. For this production of THE EFFECT, that meant building a believable and immersive clinical trial experience, while leaving room for the deeply human story of these characters.
