Wink

by Jen Silverman

Sofie is an unhappy housewife. Gregor is her bread-winning husband. Dr. Franz is their psychiatrist. Wink is the cat. And Gregor has just skinned the cat. Violent desires, domestic terrorism, and feline vengeance at any cost make WINK a dark comedy about the thin, thin line between savagery and civilization.

    Makes your skin crawl in the best way- creepy, hilarious, dark, and makes me believe in truth again. Definitely a new favorite.

    There's not much Jen Silverman can't do. I got to be in the room during phases of Wink's development as part of terraNova Collective's Groundbreakers Playwright Group. "Wink" is funny, dark, dangerous and sexy and has some of the most clever language put to paper. Love this play.
