Red Theater

A vulnerable, sensual story about what it means to claim one's freedom, this play is a special take on the Western form. Come for the gorgeous prose, stay for the deeply nuanced portrayal of Black people seeking the most out of love and life.

BILLIE is everything you want in a love story: sensuality, confidence, grief, humor, self acceptance. It's a beautiful example of a play's capacity to choose intentional windows of time to bring to life that provide larger context for lives fully lived. Can't wait to read the rest of the Oklahoma cycle!

Quick, funny, and unabashedly weird, this play asks us what sensations are the most important to preserve as humanity gets deeper into survival mode. It questions what motivates us on a primal level - to bear pain, to have a family, to feel safe. As our circumstances for life get increasingly dire, what is the most valuable to us in the day-to-day?

Full of life, this play functions like a spell, whipping you into the fervor of teenhood and carrying you through with humor and blunt force honesty. A really good time that would no doubt come to life beautifully in performance.

This is special script, weaving together your favorite elements from mysteries, thrillers, memory plays, and tragedies. It's crafted specifically for the stage, giving directors and actors plenty to play with and decide for themselves. The non-stop pacing never lets up in the best way. The ending rattled me. Images from this one will be with me for a while.
