1999 at Urbanite Theatre

Modern Works Finalist #1-1999 by Stacey Isom Campbell

When a college student protests the inclusion of a film by a disgraced #MeToo-era director in her syllabus, acclaimed producer and professor Emma is forced to confront a pivotal moment from her own past. Set against the backdrop of academia and the lasting echoes of the 1990s film industry, this compelling new play weaves together the stories of three women whose lives intersect in the aftermath of trauma. With sharp insight, it interrogates the moral complexities of consuming and teaching controversial art, raising urgent questions about culpability, memory, and power dynamics.
