Comedy
English text
A darkly comedic play that follows four women—Kara, Emma, Barbara, and Miranda—through a surreal and fragmented narrative exploring identity and trauma. Through subtle dialogue and abstract scenes, the play dissects power dynamics, gender roles, and the absurdity of modern existence. Winner of the 2024 Obie Award for Playwriting and 2025 Yale Drama Series Prize.
