Where Downtown Meets Over the Rhine

Collapse opens At Know on Saturday Feb 4th

Collapse, a new play by Allison Moore looks at the humor in crumbling lives

Know Theatre is excited to announce the cast for our next mainstage production, Collapse by Allison Moore. Collapse is directed by Know Theatre’s former Artistic Director Jason Bruffy and features Annie Fitzpatrick, Brian Isaac Phillips, Torie Wiggins, Brian W. Griffin, and select performances featuring understudy Randy Lee Bailey!

In 2007, the Mississippi River Bridge in Minneapolis collapsed, killing 13 people and injuring another 145. Hannah’s husband David was driving one of the cars that went off the bridge. He’s suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder, but refuses to attend a support group. Hannah’s life is falling apart. She can’t get pregnant, she’s one step away from losing her job, and she thinks her husband, who hasn’t been to work for months, may be an alcoholic. All he does is sit around the house, watering the plants with beer. When her sister, Susan arrives from California for an open-ended stay Hannah seems ready to unravel for good. Collapse is an uncomfortably funny exploration of the crumbling structures that undergird our bridges, our economy, and our most intimate relationships.
