Performances at Newport Playhouse: I Need That by Theresa Rebeck

September 9 - 27, 2026

Sam doesn't get out much. Actually, he doesn't get out at all, opting instead for the safety of his house in the company of his things - his many, many things. But when a notice from the government arrives alerting Sam that he must clean up his property or face eviction, he's forced to reckon with what's trash, what's treasure, and whether we can ever know the difference between the two.
