A New Play by Daniel John Kelley and Emily Plumb
In the wake of losing their child, a married couple must decide where their future lies: Is it with a romantic talking dryer who dreams of her homeland of IKEA? An adventurous 10-year old boy who dreams of true love and basketball camp? Or with leaving behind the memories that still haunt their home?
THE CONVENIENCES OF MODERN LIVING is a fantastical, absurdly humorous and heartfelt look at the nature of love and loss, and what it takes to overcome tragedy and start anew.

"Daniel John Kelley and Emily Plumb's fine play The Conveniences of Modern Living should be a must-see on your FringeNYC list this year...Great writing and an imaginative concept that takes a fun and unexpected route to explore the depths of love and grief. The Conveniences of Modern Living is also a good example of what's great about FringeNYC—shows that are original and take an experimental step away from the mainstream in a fun, hip, and totally downtown way."

"Here's the standard that I expect to see at the Fringe: passionate theater makers giving committed performances in plays that shine brightly from the page onto the stage. Conveniences of Modern Living is exactly the kind of play that I'm looking forward to...So here's what needs to happen: Producers need to go see this show and promptly throw money at the playwright. I expect to see this play getting an 8 week run at an off-broadway house within the next year."
