The Blue Moon Ball event raised more than $50,000 to support the work of Chicago Dramatists, dedicated to the development and advancement of playwrights and new plays.

I have to congratulate local playwright Will Cooper for this truly insightful original work. Although the show is a mere 90 minutes, he doesn't rush it. He takes his time in presenting a beautiful piece about one's struggle for identity. Not only does he give you a girl struggling in relation to her family and in relation to her culture, he also layers in attention to China's one-child policy (established in 1979 to limit population growth). Sure, our relations with China are far different than they were thirty years ago. Nonetheless, Cooper reminds us that the repercussions of this horrific human rights violation are something that we're only starting to really deal with today.

Chicago Dramatists, 1105 W. Chicago Avenue, is proud present the world premiere of Jade Heart, the spellbinding new play by Senior Network Playwright Will Cooper.. The production, previewing April 22, opening April 30 and running through May 30, will be directed by Chicago Dramatists' Artistic Director Russ Tutterow.
