Bringing together some of the innovative, thought-provoking, and daring
new works from New York's downtown theater scene, The Downtown
Anthology offers a rich collection of plays from both up-and-coming and
established playwrights.
Includes: A Map of Virtue by Erin Courtney; We Are Proud To Present A
Presentation About The Herero Of Namibia, Formerly Known As Southwest
Africa, From The German Südwestafrika, Between The Years 1884-1915 by
Jackie Sibblies Drury; Trevor by Nick Jones; The Lily's Revenge by
Taylor Mac; Alice in Slasherland by Qui Nguyen; Phoebe in Winter by
Jen Silverman.
Trevor: "Hugely entertaining tragicomedy... the genius of [Jones's]
play is how he has so cleverly humanized both characters." - Chicago
Sun Times
The Lily's Revenge: "...offers so many incidental pleasures that
theatrical time - always a curiously malleable element - seems to
contract." - New York Times
A Map of Virtue: "With a Hitchcockian sensibility, [Courtney] makes
psychodrama out of the mystery of what keeps people together even as
imaginations and egos push them apart. Like a souvenir from a fleeting
dream, this play will pass over you painlessly, and then it will
linger." - Backstage
