As a friendship develops between longtime resident John Dodge (Linus Roache) and new arrival Mary Swanson (Heather Burns), the lives of the inhabitants of Middletown intersect in strange and poignant ways in a journey that takes them from the local library to outer space and points between.

The design team for Middletown is David Zinn (set & costume design) and Tyler Micoleau (lighting design).

Eno's play 'Thom Pain (based on nothing)' was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for Drama and enjoyed a year-long run Off-Broadway in 2004 following its debut at the International Edinburgh Fringe Festival and a subsequent transfer to London's Soho Theatre. His play 'The Flu Season' won the 2004 Oppenheimer Award for best debut production. His other plays include 'Tragedy: a tragedy' and 'Oh, The Humanity and other exclamations,' which debuted at The Flea Theater.
