Plays

  • BUSINESS IDEAS
    Vegetables for men. Eggplant? Potatoes? A gun... on your phone. If we don't make it someone else will. Hear me out: all-ages bar. For every drink sold we donate one drink to a person in need. Or how about a cute little book that goes by the cashier register! That you see it and think "I want to buy it!" Listen we're fucking desperate. This play is about my mom.
  • SCHOOL PICTURES
    Xavier has stopped doing homework because of climate change. Dana never turns her Zoom camera on. James hates reading. A portrait of the NYC school system - in all its beauty and inequity - told in musical snapshots of individual teenagers, sung by their broke, hapless tutor.
