The Sickness of Wanting is a short one act play about desire, intimacy, and allowing one’s self to reach beneath the facade of casual romantic connection. It Follows two men who, very briefly, grab hold of their true wanting by baring themselves to one another over the course of a night. Together they discover a hope which they had both—in their own ways—long since let go of.
