Ugh! This horror story gets under the skin, literally and figuratively. It's a whiplash ride through conspiracy theories with characters more relatable than most in the genre - with plenty of dark humor to leaven the experience. It's on my short list.

The community of national & local readers for the 44th annual Bay Area Playwrights Festival enthusiastically recommends THE TARGETED as a Semi-Finalist this season at Playwrights Foundation out of 755 plays. We were deeply moved by the artistic merits of the structure and character development. We're compelled by the play's promise, as it explores levels of trust among a marginalized community. We hope this play is widely read, finds dedicated collaborators, and moves swiftly towards production. #BAPF2021

It is the Eugene O'Neill Theater Center's pleasure to recommend Hanna Kime and their play The Targeted as a finalist for our 2020 National Playwrights Conference. This particular work emerged from a highly competitive, anonymous, and multi-tiered selection process to become one of 63 finalists out of more than 1,500 submissions. This enthralling piece galvanized the hearts and theatrical imaginations of our reading teams and is fully championed by our offices. We are honored to put our enthusiastic support behind this writer and their ongoing contributions to the American Theater.
