Playwright India Kotis to Sign Her Play The Tangibles at Drama Book Shop
The Drama Book Shop is pleased to welcome India Kotis for a reading from her play THE TANGIBLES in its downstairs Arthur Seelen Theatre. The free event, which will take place on Monday, July 11th at 5:00pm, will be followed by a signing on the main floor of the shop.
In The Tangibles, it's Saturday night in New York City. High school is almost over, and Raina's throwing a post-breakup pity party. But when her friends arrive, they bring along problems of their own, and the night soon becomes a disappointment free-for-all of unrequited love, rejected college applications, delicate identity politics, and ukulele jams. Can this group of artsy teens set aside their personal fears about the future long enough to connect with one another?
India Kotis was born in the year of the Ox and raised in The City That Never Sleeps. She has been writing plays since 2011 and good plays since 2013. She is the author of Philia, a recipient of Young Playwrights, Inc.'s 2015 National competition. She is also the author of The Tangibles and Suspended, which premiered at The Blank's Young Playwrights Festival in 2015 and has been performed in Los Angeles and New York.
The Tony Award-winning Drama Book Shop, now celebrating its 99th year, is located at 250 West 40th Street between 7th and 8th Avenues. For more information on this and other events, please visit www.dramabookshop.com.
PRAISE FOR THE TANGIBLES
"The Tangibles holds up a mirror to a very specific world of artsy New York high schoolers, yet the play wrestles with bigger questions of meaning, communication, and our very humanness. The Tangibles is as much about intangibility and how hard it is, in spite of our shared want for connection and happiness, to understand each other." - Joanne Rendell, The Huffington Post
