Border Run

Recommended by

  • Katy Laurance: Border Run

    Frank, heartbreaking, and perhaps almost too real. On its face, this piece is so simple, and disarming, and then you blink and...it's chilling. Perhaps most frightening of all: it reads like instructions for a future we are not prepared for, but may be coming all the same.

    This is absolutely high tension and terrifying because it is so very possible. Very easy to stage but would make a powerful short film as well. All the details are well painted and the actors will have some powerful words to showcase their talents through.

    A sad and frightening look at where women’s reproductive rights are headed in post Roe v. Wade America. George Sapio let’s the tension build as the two characters discuss the details of their planned “escape.” And then he leaves you teetering on the edge of your seat wondering what their fate will be. A small bit of discomfort considering what women are already facing. This is an important play that needs to be produced before the events depicted become reality.
