Hospital is a collaborative creation of Los Angeles Poverty Department and the Dutch company Wunderbaum. Hospital uses cliches of hospital television series, and material derived from encounters with patients, doctors, and insurers to create a metaphor for the healthcare system-an exciting show where love, life, money, and death blend together. The live theater audience simulates a TV studio audience. Putting the American experience alongside the Dutch challenges accepted contradictions to consciousness, at a time when both healthcare systems are changing significantly.
