Plays for a New Year
Our newest featured list comes courtesy of playwright Crystal Skillman, who offers the following introduction: "As we dig our heels into a new year—with much at stake, much to do, and so many problems in the world—playwrights are often both playwrights and activists. The NPX is a rich landscape of work that provides evidence of this philosophy, and the scripts I've selected chief among them. In tackling toxic masculinity, racism, the water crisis, abortion rights, LGBTQ rights, faith, the oil industry, autonomous vehicles, gun control, culture, and identity, these dark (or darkly humorous), often fantastical plays feel like calls to action."
