Humana Festival 2012: The Complete Plays brings together all ten
scripts from the 2012 Humana Festival of New American Plays, the 36th
annual cycle of world premiere productions staged at Actors Theatre of
Louisville. This unique compilation features an exceptional array of
work by some of the most exciting new voices in the American theatre,
from a group of suburban kids in the late 80s who forge a cultural
identity through hip hop (How We Got On), to a rich, dying woman who
suspects her nurse is being paid off to expedite her death (Death
Tax), to a 500-year-old Austrian vampire struggling with the
existential grind of modern living (Michael von Siebenburg Melts
Through the Floorboards). This original and diverse collection of plays
is a must-have for anyone seeking fresh, daring, and compelling theater.
