A modern adaptation of Chekhov's Uncle Vanya, where the titular character John Blackwood (Matt Biagini*) is part of the toxic Incel movement, with a Twitch stream to tell people about it. He's also an aspiring rapper. His 17-year-old niece Alice (Abigail Espinal) is just coming into her own as a trans woman, and has a crush on Mikey(Tyler Gardella), the local doctor. John's famous romance novelist sister-in-law Joy(Melissa Canaday*)has come to visit with her wife Selena (Malena Sadaka), on whom John and Mikey have crushes. No one is really happy.
Writers Actors Directors (W.A.D.) brings together, you guessed it, Writers, Actors, and Directors in one room in New York City to present fresh works and talented artists. With a sense of ease, play, and a love of technical theatrical spectacle, we 'lightly-stage' each new work according to the capacity of the players. We invite the audience to join us in our spicy, quixotic process, for free, donations suggested.
