MARY MARY QUITE CONTRARY by Rehana Lew Mirza

It's 1907 and a typhoid fever outbreak among New York City's elite families has led zealous sanitation engineer George Soper ( Matt Park ) to the home of the haughty Mr. Winthrop ( Michael Chernus ) and a face-off with Winthrop's proud, though not very hygienic cook, "Typhoid Mary" Mallon ( Catherine Curtin ). Playwright Rehana Lew Mirza 's history-inspired comedy, a 2021 Wordsmith Duo Commission supported by the Axe-Houghton Foundation, is directed by Moritz von Stuelpnagel and features music by composer Tom Kochan . Stay tuned after the play for a lively conversation with Playing on Air Executive Director Yvie Jones and all the featured artists.
