410[Gone]

by Frances Ya-Chu Cowhig

Where do we go when we die? In Frances Ya-Chu Cowhig's dark and dazzling 410[Gone], that all depends on how you play the game. The stakes couldn't be higher when a young woman goes in search of her lost brother in the Land of the Dead - a dominion ruled by the Chinese Goddess of Mercy and the Monkey King, where time is suspended, and an arcade dance console holds the key to transmigration. On this fantastical journey into the underworld, a sister and brother must face the ultimate question: It there is no love without pain, what does it mean to love?

Devastating i will never heal from this

[Sofia Ciccotto]

First play I had to read for my current Intro to Playwriting course, utterly absurd but heart wrenching.
