Maybe it’s a bit too soon if you’ve had the standard traumatic encounter with your wider family over the Easter holidays, but Stephen Karam’s play The Humans, a play that focuses in on the minutiae of family drama, is coming to Stockholm tonight. Set at Thanksgiving Dinner with three generations of the Blake family, it’s a play of setbacks, disease and quarrels, and was described by The New York Times as “The finest new play of the Broadway season. The Humans is a major discovery, a play as empathetic as it is clear-minded, as entertaining as it is honest”. Playhouse Teater on Drottningatan are having a reading of the play tonight, and entrance is free.
