In search of care for her husband Bill, Evelyn finds herself on an unexpected journey––to an island where no one ever gets sick, a Peruvian bakery that boasts the perfect loaf of bread, and back in time to the 1960's where she first met Bill at a Synagogue dance. Led by Pig Iron Associate Artistic Director Nell Bang-Jensen, The Caregivers is a new play created by home health aides, hospice workers, and family caregivers that explores the spaces where love meets obligation.

The Caregivers premiered in the Pig Iron studios in June 2018.

This project was supported in part by funding from the Penn Treaty Special Services District.
