Modern Works Finalist #2-Ahoy-Hoy by Jenny Stafford A Play About That Relatable Feeling When Someone Else Invents the Telephone Three Hours Before You Do. It’s 1876 and also, right now. Elisha Gray is this close to inventing the telephone. He’s brilliant, anxious, and ready to make history… if Alexander Graham Bell doesn’t beat him to it. Spoiler: he kind of does. Two oversized egos. One telephone. A battle of beards and bell tones. Ahoy-Hoy is a deliriously unhinged, unapologetic sprint through American ambition, innovation, and the absurd quest for legacy. History has never been this ridiculous or this fun. September 19 at 5pm, September 20 at 7:30pm
