“Max Posner’s play The Treasurer follows the final throes of a relationship between a son and his aging mother, Ida, whose sense of purpose and mental faculties both decline after the death of her second husband—a man for whom she’d left her first husband when their son was just thirteen. In a series of transactions and negotiations, Ida and her son both struggle to connect across two lifetimes of guilt and silence.”
