Construction of the Human Heart,
single work
drama
'Ross Mueller's groundbreaking Construction of the Human Heart effortlessly integrates form and content to produce an ambitious and original meditation on loss and the redemptive qualities of communication through art'
'At the heart of the play is The Couple, known only as Him and Her, two playwrights dealing with unimaginable loss the only way they know how — by building a fortress of words impregnable to grief. But emotions have a way of emerging through cracks in the walls. and gradually the truth slips past their defenses to uncover their very real tragedies.'
