With Dignity

On December 28th, Laura is going to kill herself, no matter what anyone else says. She just needs a little help to do it.

As she navigates the Aid in Dying process, her brother and wife struggle to support her through their own grief and misgivings, and the volunteer she befriends faces a crisis over how her choices affect her loved ones. Set over the course of the last hour and last year of a life, With Dignity is a play about mugs, dogs, and the beauty of choice.
