WHEN THE DAY COMES: A Meta-Theatrical Stage Play


  • Theatre Exile 1340 South 13th Street Philadelphia, PA, 19147 United States (map)

"When the Day Comes" is a compelling contemporary drama that explores the intersection of art, mortality, and the enduring power of profound friendship.

Thessaly Grant, a documentary filmmaker, and Dr. Leander Case, a physician diagnosed with Stage IV Metastatic Colon Cancer, collaborate on creating a documentary that captures their extraordinary bond. It's a friendship like no other, transforming personal tragedy into transcendent art.

This meta-theatrical piece creates powerful dramatic irony through its innovative structure, allowing audiences to experience the creation of art as a response to mortality. The play's unique approach invites viewers to witness the collaborative process between these two extraordinary friends as they transform their shared experiences into something enduring, creating a profound meditation on presence, absence, memory, and how art allows us to transcend our limitations.
