THE TIME: The mid-1980's.
This was before everyone had a computer and smartphone, so instead of emailing and texting, we used a rather slow technology called..."Mail."
Alex is a struggling writer about to turn 30. He is unable to cope with the pressures put on him by his fiancee, his best friend, his parents, and his literary agent, so Alex has a nervous breakdown and disappears for 4 months.
He returns to find a huge stack of mail...
and this is when things get weird.
Following a 6-month record run at the Pasadena Playhouse,
"Mail" opened on Broadway at the Music Box Theatre
