I was recommended this play years ago and it shot right up to being one of my favorite texts I've never seen -- a brutal/tender collision of epic and intimate, a future-oriented explosion of the Western genre into its most human parts then carefully reconstructed into a wide-ranging ensemble drama dripping with magic, character, grit, and yearning. This is one of those plays you'd write sign ten petitions and call your congressman to see performed. A script that really soars.

A powerful look at freedom, identity, and belonging that will stay with you. Emotional and well done.

To write a play whose theatricality screams out to you, that belongs so firmly on the stage - that is hard. To write a play that is firmly rooted in place, that lives and breathes and loves its setting - that is also hard. To do both at once - that is an astonishing feat, and Misfit, America does it beautifully.
