The Ward is a play that follows an unconventional romance as it unfolds within the gloomy walls of an American psychiatric facility in the 1950s. The play sees Charlotte and Ben—brought together by their trauma, respective mental illnesses and shared passion for literature—pursue comfort and escape in a relationship as they struggle towards healing. This process of healing—they are patients, after all—is overseen by the benevolent and ambitious Dr. Avery, founder of the facility. Meditative and psychological, The Ward takes its liberties to explore concepts like normalcy, the passage of time, true love and sanity.
