Cost of Living FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE PRESS CONTACT: Jasmine Jiang, 240.670.8798 [email protected] ROUND HOUSE THEATRE CONTINUES SEASON WITH PULITZER PRIZE-WINNING DRAMA COST OF LIVING April 1 – 19 at Round House Theatre Bethesda, Md. (February 20, 2020) – Round House Theatre continues its 2019-2020 Homecoming Season with the regional premiere of Cost of Living by award-winning playwright Martyna Majok. Directed by Round House Artistic Director Ryan Rilette, Cost of Living runs April 1 – 19, 2020 in the newly renovated Round House Theatre. Please see below for complete program details and ticket information. Praised by the New York Times as “immensely haunting,” Cost of Living explores the forces that bring people together and the realities of facing the world with intersecting narratives about four very different lives. Overworked and nearly homeless, Jess is a recent college graduate who must take on another job to make ends meet—this time as the personal caregiver for John, a brilliant and wealthy PhD student with cerebral palsy. Across town, unemployed truck driver Eddie sits alone at a bar, recalling his struggle to support his estranged wife Ani after a car accident left her quadriplegic. In addition to being the winner of the 2018 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, Cost of Living received the Edgerton New Play Prize, the the Kennedy Center’s Jean Kennedy Smith Prize, the Women’s Invitational Prize at Ashland New Play Festival, and the Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding New Play. Martyna Majok’s first play, Ironbound, had its world premiere at Round House in 2015 and took home the Charles MacArthur Award for Outstanding New Play at the 2016 Helen Hayes Awards. “I am thrilled and honored to be bringing Martyna Majok’s work back to the Round House stage,” says director Ryan Rilette. “Since our production of Ironbound during the first Women’s Voices Theater Festival, she has been produced worldwide and garnered a number of well-deserved awards. In Cost of Living, she uses that success to amplify and spotlight other amazing artists. Performers in our cast like Gregg Mozgala and Regan 1 Linton are world-class talents, but they’re also accomplished advocates who are changing the way that American theatre treats issues of physical disability.” Rilette goes on to praise the multifaceted nature of Majok’s work. “Cost of Living is a truly intersectional play, one that acknowledges the many different issues that affect our everyday lives. Alongside the topic of physical disability, the story also explores the failures of our healthcare system, the tensions created by class divisions, and the difficulties of being a first-generation American—all without sacrificing character development. At its heart, this is a work about relationships, but the relationships all exist within a broader social context. Martyna’s ability to incorporate the personal with the political feels especially relevant to DC-area audiences during an election year, and I look forward to this production acting as a catalyst for many vital discussions.” The cast includes Alina Collins Maldonaldo (Everybody at Shakespeare Theatre Company, BLKS at Woolly Mammoth), Regan Linton (Much Ado About Nothing at Oregon Shakespeare Festival, Artistic Director of Phamaly Theatre Company), Gregg Mozgala (originated role of John in Cost of Living, Artistic Director of The Apothetae), and Round House Theatre Resident Artist Craig Wallace (previously in A Doll’s House, Part 2). The cast is joined by a creative team that includes scenic designer Tony Cisek, lighting designer Harold F. Burgess II, costume designer and Round House Theatre Resident Artist Ivania Stack, sound designer Matthew Nielson, intimacy consultant Lorraine Ressegger- Slone, and disability consultant Roger Ideishi. Tickets may be purchased by calling 240.644.1100, ordering online at RoundHouseTheatre.org, or in person at the box office.

IRB protocol # 12-0407 iii McNish, Deric (Ph.D., Theatre and Dance) The 19 Percent: Disability and Actor Training in Higher Education Thesis directed by Associate Professor Oliver Gerland Abstract: The purpose of this dissertation is to study training methods for students with disabilities in college acting courses. Although more than 19% of Americans live with some form of documented disability, this is a minority that is virtually non-existent on stage and screen. Able-bodied actors play nearly all of the available roles, a practice that some consider a modern form of minstrelsy. As written, the few characters seen often reflect outdated disability models, perpetuating stereotypes that can be reductive and harmful. There is a troublesome lack of authenticity in writing and casting. One of the many reasons for this lack of visibility may be related to a disproportionately low number of trained actors with disabilities in the professional market.
