Alice arrives to help her mother Margaret after an accident that has broken Margaret's hip, and finds that Margaret is hip-deep in old newspapers, mail, receipts, and assorted flotsam. Alice sets about cleaning out the house-- but as the house gets neater, their relationship gets messier.

Michael Bérubé is a professor of English and the author of twelve books of literary and cultural criticism and creative nonfiction. He was the director of Penn State's Institute for the Arts and Humanities from 2010 to 2017, and wrote "Hoarding" after stepping down from that role. This is his first play.
