The War Letters
by Charlotte Purser
WP THEATER NYC
The War Letters is inspired by the real collection of over a thousand love letters written between playwright Charlotte Purser's grandparents during World War II. The play uses these letters to tell not only the story of her grandparents' relationship, but to also delicately trace the experience of late-stage Alzheimer's disease. The War Letters dives into her grandmother's fractured mind, creating an otherworldly experience of memory where nothing is quite what it seems… until the words on the letters have finally disappeared.
Tomorrow Will Be Sunday
by Heather Raffo
The Kennedy Center, DC
Tomorrow Will Be Sunday is an epic map of a play linking the world’s migration patterns to the daily transactions of our lives. This ambitious theatrical experiment invites us to imagine a new relationship to human value, by first unpacking what we value in a world where all populations must confront not only global migration, but their own.
Co-directed with Tamilla Wooard. Set by Irina Kruzhilina
