Details

The Hatmaker’s Wife by Lauren Yee is a captivating grown-up fairy tale where reality and imagination intertwine, exploring themes of identity, family, love, and the distractions that pull us away from these things that matter most.

When a young woman and her boyfriend move into their new home, they uncover the magical history of its previous occupants: a distracted hatmaker and his long-suffering wife, who has left him, taking his beloved hat along with her. Through a whimsical and surreal narrative, the play redefines the concepts of family, home, and love, bending time and space in delightful ways.

The story unfolds with a large dose of magical realism—walls that literally talk, words that appear out of nowhere, a house that comes alive, and, obviously, a golem with a softness for Cheetos. A truly fantastical adventure, The Hatmaker’s Wife is a modern fable that is part ghost story, part fairy tale, showcasing Lauren Yee’s imaginative and humorous take on what it means to find real love.
