Share Description
Part of the 2024 New Works Festival | Original Plays written and directed by the 2023-2024 Incubator/Mentor Cohort
WRITTEN BY RACHEL ATKINS | DIRECTED BY DIVYA RAJAN
Moving back and forth through time and place, 3 different pairs of women fight for their lives. Angelina and Sarah are immigrant sweatshop workers who have both escaped dire circumstances in their home countries, trying to escape the 1911 Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire. A century later, Angelina’s great-granddaughter Angie is trapped with co-worker Miranda in a post-9/11 office skyscraper disaster. Angie’s Muslim-American roommate Sera and Miranda’s sister Trish struggle to make sense of their losses together. All are strangers forced to develop connections under extraordinary circumstances—each, in their own way, in the wrong place at the right time. It’s a play about life and death, choices and consequences, chance, hope, grief, loss and survival. And sometimes, it’s funny. Really.
Length and Intermission
Each play is approximately 60 minutes. There will be a minimum 15-minute intermission between performances. The audience will be asked to step out of the theatre to allow the crew to re-set the stage for the next show in the festival.
