Annie Baker’s ‘Infinite Life’ is a subtle character study that explores deep pain through minimalist dialogue and careful pacing, reflecting on how characters struggle to communicate their suffering.
With deliberate pacing and sparse dialogue, Baker’s play infuses the mundane setting of a fasting clinic with profound emotional depth as characters address their individual pains.
The play unfolds over 105 minutes, during which each character attempts to articulate their personal suffering, a process that exposes the limits of communication in the face of deep emotional turmoil.
