Join us April 25 at 2pm (Pacific)/5pm (Eastern) for a celebration of weirdness, as we lean into these wonderful works that comprise a new play anthology The Weirdest Plays of 2020 available here. There are plenty of short play collections available — But we wanted something more! We wanted to put together a grouping of new works that reflect a different, weirder aesthetic. Plays with octopuses, talking elephants, plays that take place in the last car of a rolling shit train. And then 2020 itself devolved into the weirdest year any of us had likely encountered in our lifetimes, and — suddenly these weird plays seem all the more relevant!
