Play Synopsis:

sic (adv.): thus, so.

[sic] takes place primarily in the doorways and shared hallway of three neighbouring apartments. Meet Theo, the desperate & edgy amusement park ride theme music composer, the struggling and ever-broke writer Babette, and Frank, the queer, happy-go-lucky aspiring auctioneer. See them humorously trudge through the haunting morass of everyday drudgery and the biting emptiness of big city life. Watch, as the three of them come together to discuss, flirt, argue, share their dreams and plan their futures with unequal degrees of deep hopefulness and abject despair.

[sic], chosen as one of the Best American Plays of 2001-2002, is a neurotic, bittersweet comedy about the "quarter-life crisis", and unfolds as three lives collide in one common corridor.

And last but…
