After checking herself into a psychiatric hospital, Susanna finds the ward is equal parts refuge and prison. The women inside it, however, are unexpectedly her people. If that sounds like the Winona Ryder and Angelina Jolie film Girl, Interrupted, it’s because it is. The Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Martyna Majok has adapted the story—originally based on a memoir by Susanna Kaysen—for the stage, with original music by Aimee Mann and choreography by the Tony Award-winner Sonya Tayeh. King Princess makes her stage debut as Lisa, alongside Juliana Canfield as Susanna. —Jeanne Malle
