A new play by Christina Anderson

Directed by Robert O’Hara

October 26–November 20, 2011

1936. A metropolis divided by segregation and struck by economic turmoil. Rent parties rage above, while men hungry for work and love roam the streets. In this concrete jungle, a series of black female bodies turn up and a pattern emerges. Reactions vary across the city–hot-tempered ex-con Walker remains oblivious; Darlynn is anxious, but then again, she’s always anxious; and her neighbor Paul Pare Jr., a young, charming black man stays cool. Man in Love examines a world of quiet desperation in hard times, where a criminal and his victims can get lost in the crowd.

A new play by Zayd Dohrn

Directed by Kimberly Senior

October 27–November 20, 2011

A group of former junkies and sex addicts gather in a California beach flophouse to overcome their desires with an aggressive dose of “tough love” group therapy. When a strange young woman shows up on their doorstep, their sobriety, celibacy and faith in each other are all put to the test. The denizens of Zayd Dohrn’s Want follow a new age approach which begs the question: cure or cult?

A new play by Carly Mensch

Directed by Matt Miller

October 28–November 20, 2011

Uber-hip Brooklynites Pam and Dixon take great pride in their progressive approach to parenting. But when their 17-year-old daughter, Julie, repeatedly lies about where she spent the weekend, their cool, high-brow façade crashes and burns. Carly Mensch’s Oblivion takes a wry look at Nietzsche, famed film critic Pauline Kael and what it means to fight for the things you love.
