A universal human story of the dangers of isolation and the healing power of fellowship, Bill W. & Dr. Bob is told with passion, humor and authenticity. In 1929, New York stockbroker Bill Wilson crashes with the stock market and becomes a hopeless drunk. Dr. Bob Smith, a surgeon from Ohio, has also been an alcoholic for 30 years, often going into the operating room with a hangover. Through an astonishing series of events, Bill and Bob meet and form a relationship, helping to keep each other sober.

Bill W and Dr. Bob Reviews
| Aisle Say Twin Cities - Recommended
"...For alcoholics and non-alcoholics alike, Bill W. & Dr. Bob has more to offer than just a re-telling of history. It is, above all, about the importance of supportive relationships and the ability to tell your story to a sympathetic listener. In this production - the play's third time at the Illusion Theater - the actors' true and honest performances turn us all into the sympathetic listeners we know we all ought to be."
