DeeConstruction will be presented as a staged reading featuring playright Dee Ryan. Advance tickets are $5, and Pay What You Can tickets will be available at the door starting at 4:30pm on March 26.

Dee, an overwhelmed wife, mother of two, and cat owner, is addicted to home repair. Her previous electrical re-wires, plumbing re-pipes, French door upgrades, and landscaping makeovers haven’t satisfied her insatiable cravings for change. What begins as a simple room addition and kitchen remodel becomes a complete two-story renovation.

Is Dee the Grand Lady of the House, or the Madwoman in the Attic? Comic author and performer Dee Ryan chronicles her Homeric odyssey across the turbulent waters of piratical contractors, siren architects, monster neighbors, ghostly painters, and clueless husbands. In her moments of greatest stress and delusion, fictional characters Jane Eyre, Scarlett O’Hara and Emma Bovary stop by for game night.

Dee’s journey takes on personal resonance as she discovers the roots of her house obsession, the twisted strength of family, and the importance of coming home. Her addiction is cured forever… or is it?
