Product Description

Wallace Shawn's first new play in ten years, a dark moral fable.

And so yes, well, I'd simply dropped that whole idea of being a good person, I'd dropped it right down into some hole in the street, and down it had gone into the city's sewers, and no one ever saw it again. And that was sad, if you thought it was sad, or I suppose it was sad, or some people probably would say it was sad.

A dark moral fable, telling of an acclaimed writer's hedonistic lifestyle and its effects on his wife, son and mistress.

Wallace Shawn's first new play in ten years, another viciously witty indictment of the liberal intelligentsia and its hidden depravity, will be staged in rep with a revival of The Fever at an Off-Broadway theatre in January 2026.

"Wallace Shawn writes like no one else. His stuff is scary, gripping, and hilarious.", New Yorker
