A one-act play by Chicana playwright Milcha Sanchez-Scott reflects the struggle of a Cuban-American to find her way in American mainstream culture.
A one-act play by Arlene Huttonhas the makings of a feminist classic, according to one reviewer.
New selections from Sophocles, Ibsen, and August Wilson offer echoes of today’s politics (Antigone), an adaptation by Arthur Miller(An Enemy of the People), and a classic from one of America’s most admired playwrights(The Piano Lesson).
