Was touching. All the actors very good. But Lupita excellent
A powerhouse of emotion and intelligence. You leave the theatre a different person, which is what a good play does.
78/100 An intelligent, insightful script about DV. Well-directed and acted. But more effort should have been made on production values (awful set and costumes). And sight-lines are tough in the flat theater, so no action should take place on the floor.

More information about Pre-Existing Condition
A special kind of performance, this unique play offers a rotating cast of stars at the helm. Pre-Existing Condition originally ran at the Connelly Theater, and Drama Desk Award nominee Greg Keller, Pulitzer Prize finalist Dael Orlandersmith, and Drama Desk Award winner Sarah Steele reprise their supporting roles from that first run.
Playwright Marin Ireland and director Maria Dizzia said in a shared statement, "We are thrilled and honored to be able to bring the play back at Greenwich House this fall and continue the tradition of rotating the actors playing the central role. We have assembled a dazzling group of women to add to the legacy of our first production — Lupita, Phillipa, Susannah, Hari and Edie are each incredibly dynamic powerhouses, bringing new and singular perspectives."
They added, "Actors sharing the role creates a community inside this production, and we can’t wait for that community to expand to audiences in September."
