AFFLUENZA

About the show

Privilege is inherited. So are the consequences. When a teen’s drunken car ride ends in devastation, the verdict comes down to one question – is it possible to be too affluent to know the difference between right and wrong? Inspired by true events surrounding a shocking legal defence, Affluenza explores the ripple effects of power and privilege. Set against the ultra-wealthy social haven of the Hamptons, Affluenza raises thought-provoking questions about moral accountability, family legacy, and the American justice system. Do any of us truly understand the cost and generational impact of privilege and opulence? Don’t miss the world premiere of Affluenza, a provocative new play written and directed by Andy Sandberg. Casting for this biting and darkly funny new play is to be announced soon.
