Everybody (TCG Edition)
Inspired by the 15th century morality play Everyman, Branden Jacobs-Jenkins' new work follows Everybody (played by one of five actors selected by lottery at the beginning of each performance) as he or she travels down a road toward life's greatest mystery and confronts the inevitable. An unpredictable and inventive inquiry into the ways we cope with our own mortality.

Praise for this book
"Throughout his meteoric career, Mr. Jacobs-Jenkins has made a virtue of his anxieties about identity -- social, racial, creative -- in meta-theatrical plays that turn traditional forms inside out."-- "New York Times"
"With Everybody, Jacobs-Jenkins has written a play about love -- or, rather, a play that shows how impossible it is to write about love -- and it fills the heart in a new and unexpected way."-- "New Yorker"
"Provocative and involving... Wildly funny."-- "Huffington Post"
