Sometimes they come back… after a successful run in the New York Theater Festival. Replaced! is a surrealist sci-fi tragicomedy following a young woman identified only as a Daughter who returns to her hometown to find that everyone in it has been replaced by aliens. Not knowing who's real and who isn't, she has to figure out how to live in this new world, or if she even wants to. Come out and join us. We'll get you in the end anyway.

Laurizarry is an indie working-class Gen Z theatre company founded by Jess Lauricello, Jaixa Irizarry, and Pedro Vierre to create the next generation of weird and subversive theatre on a dime. They met at Hunter College when Lauricello cast Irizarry and Vierre in her production of Harold Pinter's PARTY TIME, and have chosen to work together ever since. Immediately after graduating, Lauricello produced a scene from OPEN, a play by Irizarry unabashedly and unapologetically exploring female sexuality, at The Chain, and this marked the beginning of a producer-writer team dedicated to producing new, subversive, and refreshing work on a working-class budget. Since then, they have produced OPEN by Jaixa Irizarry (dir. Zoe Mintz) at The Tank, and IF I DID, YOU DESERVED IT by Jess Lauricello (dir. Casey Kelly) at UNDER St Marks.
