- A fan of New Girl? Creator Elizabeth Meriwether’s play The Mistakes Madeline Made opens at Greenhouse October 3. It “tells the story of a young woman, Edna, who develops Ablutophobia, the fear of bathing. Struggling with a soul-crushing job as a personal assistant and an unexpected loss, she wages a furious and funny war against all things complacent, pampered and clean. As Edna’s smell starts to overwhelm her co-workers and many casual lovers, the play raises the questions: is dirty living a political act? And is clean living even possible in these times of unrest?” Oh. Wow.
