WHY MUST WE PRAY SCREAMING?

In 2007 a British all-girls school is taken on a week-long trip to learn how to be good wives, being taught skills such as walking, holding conversations and applying modest makeup. Throughout this trip the girls tackle sexist restraints within educational institutions all while trying to understand what it exactly means to be a woman. ‘Why Must We Pray Screaming?’ is a play that highlights the cruelty young people can show each other as they work through the painful process of being forced to grow up before figuring out who they are.

ROUGH POETRY

Aspiring writers Adam and Mia meet at a course in New York one summer and instantly connect—until their disparate responses to the pressures of professional artistry force them apart as the course comes to an end, leaving Mia heartbroken. A decade later, the two reunite at Adam’s urgent request after he receives catastrophic news. As all they went through that summer comes hurtling back, they attempt to understand the nature of the force somehow still linking them after all these years.
