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 anti-establishment activist couple, once 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. During one tumultuous night, buried secrets surface, changing their lives forever.
