Tony and Obie award-winning playwright V, formerly Eve Ensler, has created THIS IS CRAZY!, a bold, funny, and moving new play to benefit The National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI). To kick off National Mental Illness Awareness Week, the one-night-only performance will take place in New York City’s Symphony Space on October 6, 2025, with a second show planned for Los Angeles in 2026. Thank you to NAMI, V, and the CAA Foundation for embarking on this journey to help pay tribute to our brother Chris,” said Huvane. Each year in the U.S., one in five adults and one in six youth ages 6–17 experience a mental health condition. Productions like “THIS IS CRAZY!” help spark vital conversations, and through more than 650 NAMI State Organizations and Affiliates nationwide, help and hope are never far away.
