“I am not interested in writing pretty plays. I am interested in writing true ones.”
— Sophie Treadwell

From the outside, Helen Jones has a happy marriage—until she murders her husband. Inspired by a 1928 trial that shocked the world, this explosive play follows a woman trapped in an engine of routine—until she glimpses a way out and discovers the true cost of escape. An expressionist masterwork: Machinal is an electrifying portrait of rebellion, autonomy, and the fight to claim your own voice.
