Do you know the history of the vibrator? Today we find out more with Sarah Hamilton the director of the play In The Next Room.

IN THE NEXT ROOM or the vibrator play is a provocative, funny, touching, and entertaining story about a young doctor and his wife. Dr. Givings is obsessed with the marvels of technology and what they can do for his patients. His wife, Catherine, is only a bystander in her husband's world - listening at the door from the next room as he treats his female patients. Dr. Givings is not sure exactly how the vibrators help the women he treats - but they do keep coming back. The only woman whose problem is not helped by the doctor is his own wife who longs to connect with him - but not electrically.
