   What is Janet Planet about?

   • Even the title “Janet Planet” emphasizes the way Lacy’s world is crafted in Janet’s image, as her life is the only model for love, friendship, and womanhood she’s ever known. Janet works from home as an acupuncturist, a vocation that allows her to soothe her boyfriend Wayne (Will Patton), a troubled older man of few words.

   Is Janet Planet a good show?

   • Janet Planet establishes the kind of realistic closeness between women and girls that has been mostly relegated to television in recent years. It feels like we spend a whole season with this little family and yet it still doesn’t seem like nearly enough time. The world Baker creates for her characters is so rich, warm, and beautiful.

   What happens when Janet tries to leave the bed?

   • That night, when Janet tries to leave the bed, Lacy asks for a piece of her. Janet pulls out a strand of hair and hands it to her daughter, who gazes at it lovingly. Annie Baker ’s directorial debut “Janet Planet” is as spare and contemplative as her writing for the stage.

   What does Janet look like from the backseat?

   • In an early scene, as Wayne and Janet drive Lacy home from camp, the camera gives us a closeup view, from the backseat, of Janet's left cheek and ear—her skin is translucent and downy, almost illuminated from within, as if her daughter’s adoration were its own light source.

   How old is Lacy in 'Janet Planet'?

   • When Lacy, the 11-year-old in the playwright Annie Baker ’s brilliant “Janet Planet,” calls home from camp to tell her mother, Janet, that if she doesn’t come pick her up, she’ll kill herself — I got that, in all its hyperbolic provocation. Sometimes summer is just the worst. But being 11 is also the worst. “You know what’s funny?”
