THE GREAT PRIVATION
January 9-31, 2026
The Modern Theatre at Suffolk University
(525 Washington St, Boston)
Charity and her mom both work as counselors at a sleepaway camp in Philadelphia. On the same grounds, almost two centuries earlier, a strangely familiar mother and daughter stand watch at the grave of a recently deceased loved one. As betrayals and buried horrors come to light, love holds fast across twisting timelines.
The Great Privation (How to flip ten cents into a dollar) is a darkly comic play which asks: how do we go on living with a history we cannot change?
Welcome to our community, where every audience member, artist, student, and supporter has the opportunity to fight for social justice.
Founded in 1998, Company One has situated itself as a home for social justice and artistic excellence by connecting Boston’s diverse communities through live performance, the development of new plays and playwrights, arts education, and public engagement programming. By establishing a dedicated space for marginalized and alternative narratives to thrive and working with partners and collaborators across the city, Company One has become a local leader in the ongoing conversations that continue to define the era of social change in contemporary America.
CONNECTIVITY
C1 is Boston’s hub for community connection. Connectivity provides opportunities for audience intersection with the people and organizations who are working to create a just and equitable Boston.
PLAYLAB CIRCUIT
Through a combination of personalized dramaturgy, group workshops, and professional development classes, C1’s PlayLab Circuit is an incubator of new work for writers of varied experience levels and backgrounds.
