    HEALING THE HEART OF AMERICAN HEALTHCARE

    What measures would you take to care for someone you love?

    That is the question at the heart of Mercy Killers. This one-man show centers around Joe (played by Michael Milligan, who also wrote the piece), an auto mechanic in middle America whose life is turned upside down when his wife is diagnosed with a terminal illness and he cannot afford to pay for her care.

    Milligan’s performance is intensely powerful as he navigates our nation’s complicated health insurance system.

    This performance includes content which may not be suitable for children.
