After an “incident” at The Company, dedicated employee Ada must meet with her superior, Joan, for behavioral programming sessions. However, a shocking act of violence throws the institution’s perfectly ordered system into chaos and forces Joan to question not only her managerial experiment, but her entire worldview. Ada is presented as part of SigWorks: Monday Night New Play Readings, an initiative that highlights and supports the work of DMV and regional playwrights. This series is an opportunity for playwrights, actors, directors, and patrons to explore new plays in a fun and informal environment. New Work at Signature Theatre sponsored by Dan & Gloria Logan.
