Better
Characters: 4W, 2 M
Genre: Dark Family Comedy
Like every other mom with two teenagers who loathe/love her and a husband who is absent while present, Liza aspires to be aspired to, so she invites Elaine, family architect - fixer of broken suburban souls, dispensing the wisdom of the ages from the flat screen, promising familial bliss to the disenchanted - into her home.
Can around-the-clock scrutiny by hidden cameras and intense domestic dissection change the way Liza’s family’s lives are going to go? What does it mean to be Better?
Developed through the prestigious Humanitas Play LA workshop
