Mary Jane

Mary Jane is a cheerful caregiver and unflagging advocate for her toddler, Alex, who lives with cerebral palsy and chronic illness—but the American healthcare system can wear anybody down, especially a single parent. While navigating her son’s health challenges, Mary Jane meets and builds community with women from all walks of life, experiencing joy and connection amidst the distress and heartbreak. Poignantly humorous and deeply cathartic, this semi-autobiographical drama by Tony-nominated playwright Amy Herzog is a love letter to caregivers and support systems of all kinds.
