Furlough's Paradise, written by a.k. payne and directed by abigail jean-baptiste, explores the complexity of grief, kinship, and the search for belonging. The story follows two cousins, Sade, a prisoner on a brief furlough, and Mina, who is leaving an apparently ideal life on the West Coast, as they confront unspoken truths and the challenges of their past. This lyrical meditation, which won the 2025 Susan Smith Blackburn Prize, invites audiences into a world where memory and reality intertwine amidst the ticking clock of an impending departure. The play runs from April 24 to May 16 at Yale Repertory Theatre.
