With great enthusiasm we present the new plays of 2014:
The Tyrant, by Yussef El Guindi
A captured Middle Eastern president, currently imprisoned in the United States, is permitted to speak to an American audience to address the issues that led to his arrest. Attempting to win them over to his viewpoint, he also implicates them as one of the causes for the political upheavals happening in his home country.
Things to Say When It’s Too Late to Say Them, a.k.a. Proof You Were Here, by Brendan Healy
On the occasion of an unusual anniversary, Eric and Annalisa wrestle, box, sing, and smash dishes, as they reveal all the many things they never told each other.
iI, by K Brian Neel
Thirty-six hours into a hackathon, three young programmers make an Earth-altering discovery. But are they ready to take responsibility for unleashing their creation upon history?
Cumulus, by Juliet Waller Pruzan
On a flight between Seattle and Denver, strangers start conversations, including one anxious young man getting ready for an on-board surprise. Meanwhile, the stories told on the flight continue to play out both below and above the plane.
