We’re Okay, We’re Okay, We’re all Gonna be Okay is a funny and moving examination of mental health and healing. The story follows a group of non-theater students at a college as they attempt to produce a two-person version of Hamlet. In the process they wind up navigating their own personal feelings around grief, mental illness, and ghosts.
This new play, written by up-and-coming young playwright Gina Femia, is a collaboration with NYC theatre company The Farm Theatre. The Farm Theatre is currently connected with the Tony Award-winning Broadway hit, John Proctor is the Villain. That play, currently in its Broadway run, started life with this collaborative process between The Farm Theatre and universities across the country.
