Actors' Theatre of Grand Rapids presents
Do you Feel Anger? by Mara Nelson-Greenberg
What happens when empathy becomes another workplace skill some people are allowed to fail?
Sofia has been hired as an empathy coach at a debt-collection agency, and the job is going about as well as you might expect. Her new clients can barely identify an emotion, much less practice compassion (and let’s just disregard the fact that someone keeps mugging Eva in the kitchen), and the office culture is a nightmare wrapped in corporate language and dead-eyed professionalism. While the employees stumble through lessons in feeling, listening, and basic human decency, something more sinister keeps breaking through the absurdity.
Mara Nelson-Greenberg’s outrageous dark comedy is sharp, bizarre, and deeply unsettling - exposing the danger of a world where harm is normalized, accountability is optional, and some people’s feelings matter far more than others.
*Michigan Premiere*
From Friday, September 11, 2026 7:30 PM to 9:30 PM EDT at Spectrum Theater.
