Directions

The New Normal by Walter Corwin: six short plays, each with two characters, playing a variety of personalities. The quirky heartfelt dialogues explore the person-to-person effects of America’s sharp veer to the right. A doctor attempts to console her patient while navigating his deep misogyny; two supremely unqualified individuals are out in charge of a university; the playwright argues with his wife, and Uncle Sam and Lady Liberty hold out a shred of hope. Life continues under a dark cloud.
