[NoHo Arts District, CA] – Beverly Hills Playhouse presents the world premiere of THE DIFFICULTY ADJUSTMENT, a new drama written and directed by Allen Barton and produced by Mia Christou, running November 6-29.
The Difficulty Adjustment explores the price of speaking your mind in a changing America.
About THE DIFFICULTY ADJUSTMENT
Allen Barton’s THE DIFFICULTY ADJUSTMENT concerns two financial crises, and how two men across 20 years respond to them. One is Sterling, an economics professor during the 2008 global financial crisis who is possibly also Satoshi Nakamoto, the pseudonymous creator of the Bitcoin protocol. Another is Ethan, the owner of a Los Angeles theatre in 2020-21, during the time of Covid lockdowns, financial repression and “de-banking.” While Sterling and Ethan never meet, their stories are connected, as Ethan and his wife come to terms with the price for speaking your mind in post-Covid America.
