A new play that expresses the mystery & trauma of being conscious...

Thanks to the Artist Advancement initiative grant* from The Venturous Theater Fund, our daring new work will premiere January 15 - 25, 2026 at the American Theatre of Actors in NYC!

A play for our times:

Developed during a fellowship with the Action Lab in spring of 2025, This new original play MY DYING CITY VOL. II follows an activist couple, once radical radio hosts of ‘The Social Justice Suicide Hour’, who now grapple with political & personal disillusionment after the one year anniversary of their son’s suicide. Telephone calls, radio broadcasts, and people from their past force the couple to confront truths about their son and themselves. Over one tumultuous night, buried secrets surface, changing their lives forever.

Performances will be January 15 - 25, 2026.

A radical version of Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? as if told by Chekhov and Frantz Fanon. Quite possibly Kangalee’s best play.”
