PIED NOIR, full-length,O'NEILL 2017 Semi-Finalist, UNICORN 2018 Semi-Finalist. Police respond to a deadly attack in the South of France with an early morning raid on Muslim extremists. When a young Muslim woman crashes into the home office of Claude, a physical therapist, her hijab and refusal to be treated for her injury trigger nostalgia for his colonial life in Algeria when it was part of France. How can Magida, a Muslim born in France but not yet a citizen, and Claude, reliving his colonial superiority, face their fears and agree to share a national identity? This play intimately explores the racist roots of violence, multiculturalism, and the search for home and identity.
