Play-By-Play: The Anatomy of Love

× In The Anatomy of Love, playwright Ted Malawer explores the lives of Danny and Laura, a modern couple consisting of a working mother and stay-at-home father. Their comfortable existence comes to a dead, frightening stop when their seven-year-old daughter’s teacher, Ms. Spencer, suggests that their child is most likely transgender. What follows is a fierce and sometimes hostile battle with Danny and Ms. Spencer advocating acceptance and pre-emptive reassignment and Laura adamantly refusing either action. This highly relevant issue is the battleground for an emotional and heartbreaking story of fierce love and dreaded loss.
