Collage: Three Short Plays for Off-Broadway

by Erik Anderson

[3 W / 3 M] Three step-sisters that sing out with meaning and emotion ... The A young woman, in the aftermath of an attempted gang rape, comes to grip with the horror through a university campus troll. A city-state 150 years beyond a nuclear holocaust, where genetics have come to rule both custom and law, and where a young woman must face the age-old question of an unexpected (and un-approved) pregnancy. Room A silent comedy where a man and a woman and their daughter learn to embrace the final endings of heart disease (and death). "Art is a lie that makes us realize the truth." Pablo Picasso *** A TRIPTYCH OF PLAYS *** "A tremendous achievement." —Randall King, The Stage “Highly original … and the subject matter is contemporary and important.” —David Goldman, National Center for New Plays at Stanford “Staccato beats and fragmented sentences worked beautifully to showcase the strangeness of the fantastical settings.” —Sarah Rose Leonard, Berkeley Repertory Theatre
