The Good

The Good
A new performance by Jenny Magnus

The Good is a performance about virtue, and whether one can be bad for the right reasons. 

What is good? How are we supposed to be good and interesting? Is the pressure to be good, to be proper, to not hurt others, to not transgress, actually a way to hold one down? Can someone be "not good," but in tiny ways no one might notice? And what about the word “virtue”? Loosely dubbing off Marcus Aurelius’ “Meditations,” Jenny Magnus sings her way through this dilemma, as she has been doing for 30 years. She is asking: Is not being good the same as being bad? 

Presented as part of The Curious Theatre Branch's 35th season.
