When a young gay man is found dead in his New York apartment, his best friends are left wondering why. Part meditation and part celebration, Look Upon Our Lowliness is a touching, unexpectedly funny story of seven men who, in the wake of a tragic loss, choose to embrace life. In a world inundated by technology and constant communication, the play examines the interconnectedness of love, loss, faith, and healing. Part of New York Theatre Workshop's 28th annual summer residency at Dartmouth.
