Readingen av Martyna Majoks Pulitzerbelönade pjäs Cost of living genomfördes med publik enbart online - och vi hade publik inte bara från Sverige utan också från Nya Zeeland, Turkiet, Kanada och USA! 

Pjäsen är ett både gripande och humorfyllt nedslag i fyra människor liv. De har alla ställts inför större utmaningar än de flesta behöver möta under en hel livstid, men vägrar låta livet stanna upp bara för det.

Den arbetslöse lastbilschaffisen Eddie försöker laga det som finns kvar av relationen med sin exfru Ani, efter att en dramatisk händelse ställde deras liv på ända. Jess söker ännu ett timjobb, den här gången som personlig assistent till den förmögne doktoranden John. Dessa fyra livsöden vävs ihop till en berättelse om krafterna som för människor samman, om strävan framåt – och om hur desperat vi behöver varandra när det kommer till kritan.

For the reading of Martyna Majok's Pulitzer winning play from 2016 we had audience joining us online not only from Sweden but also from New Zeeland, Turkey, Canada and the US!

In this riveting play the lives of four very different people are intertwined. They’re all facing challenges larger than most of us do during our lifetime – and are determined not to let this stop them from living. Truck driver Eddie is struggling to rebuild a relationship with his ex-wife Ani after a dramatic incident and Jess is trying to navigate her new job as a personal caregiver for John, a wealthy graduate student. Cost of living is an achingly human and surprisingly funny story about the forces that bring people together, the strive to keep going, and how deeply we all need each other in the end.
