Garuda’s Wing is a new play by Naomi Iizuka.  This is a ghost play of interpersonal intimacy and international investigation.  This mystery, intergenerational, global spellbinder is  an exploration, shrouded in mystery, entangled in the effects of colonization. Garuda’s Wing is magical in that it is a play that is both a spellbinding trance and one that spans continents and time.  This play begins in Borneo.  It takes us to Jakarta.  And in the midst, we travel through generations, histories, and bloodlines.  The play involves a search, unearthing, murder, on the personal familial intimate level as well as connecting to the large global colonial plane.  Iizuka possesses the ability to create intimate human portraits, while simultaneously evoking the layers of revolution and colonial effects - a stunning and magnetic feat, even in reading alone.

We're thrilled to present the world premiere of IN THE EVENING BY THE MOONLIGHT, a new play uplifting the revolutionary playwright behind our company’s name. Set in her Waverly Place flat in New York, legendary writer Lorraine Hansberry shares a rowdy, scotch-filled evening debating, confronting fears, and celebrating the hope of revolution with the incomparable musician Nina Simone and the prolific writer James Baldwin.

In The Evening By The Moonlight

Critically-acclaimed playwright James Ijames reinvents Shakespeare’s masterpiece with his new drama, Fat Ham. Juicy is a queer, Southern college kid, already grappling with some serious questions of identity, when the ghost of his father shows up in their backyard, demanding that Juicy avenge his murder. It feels like a familiar story to Juicy, well-versed in Hamlet’s woes. What’s different is Juicy himself, a sensitive and self-aware young Black man trying to break the cycles of trauma and violence in service of his own liberation. From an uproarious family barbecue emerges a compelling examination of love and loss, pain and joy.
