"We have given these two shows--Danny and the Deep Blue Sea and Gruesome Playground Injuries--an overlapping, repertory run to put them in direct communication with one another. One takes place over the course of 30 years, the other, a single night. With keen awareness, both playwrights manifest incredibly sensitive characters risking love - despite how painful that might be.
Both plays confront the same big questions: Do we change? Does love have the power to save us? How do we write the stories of our own future?" - Mason Wagner, Director, BetweenTheLines
