This Much I Know

Show Info

By Jonathan Spector
Directed by Hayley Finn

With Firdous Bamji, Ethan J. Miller, and Dani Stoller 

A psychology professor's search for his missing wife launches us on a time-hopping fugue, weaving together the stories of Stalin's daughter defecting to America, the son of a white supremacist growing to doubt the beliefs he was raised with, and the secret despair of becoming an accidental killer. 

Inspired by the book Thinking, Fast and Slow by Nobel laureate Daniel Kahneman about the science of decision-making, Jonathan Spector (Tony Award-winning Eureka Day) takes us on an explosively theatrical interrogation of how we make decisions, how we change our minds, and how much responsibility we bear for the things we do not control.

This Much I Know was originally produced at Aurora Theater, Berkeley, California. This Much I Know was subsequently produced by Theater J, part of the Edlavitch DCJCC; Hayley Finn, Artistic Director; David Lloyd Olson, Managing Director. Developed with support from The Ground Floor at Berkeley Rep, Playwrights Foundation, New Harmony Project, Playwrights Center, and Manhattan Theater Club.
