[sic] was originally commissioned by Steppenwolf Theatre Company and premiered at Soho Rep under the direction of Daniel Aukin. Gibson describes the title, [sic] as a latin term that appears in writing to signify to the reader that an apparent mistake is in fact an accurate citation. “This notion of distancing oneself from responsibility informs the three main characters of the play, who exist at arm’s length from their own situations, as if their real lives have yet to be inhabited.”
