“Hunker Down,” by Robert. F. Benjamin, directed by Duchess Dale. In this
hourlong, live, online play about seniors coping with loneliness, a
spunky older woman clashes and banters with a crusty, whimsical

grapple with their changed reality. Can social distancing spawn an
unlikely, lasting friendship? Or more? For tickets to this play on
