Five Plays

STORY

“Five Plays” by playwright and screenwriter Joshua Crone spans a decade of writing, producing and theater-building, from a military psychodrama about prisoner abuse (Solitaire) and an award-winning dramatization of a school shooting (Washed in the Blood) to a hit comedy starring a dog on ayahuasca (The Journey), a noh-inspired drama exploring the aftermath of Hiroshima (Ashes Ashes) and a new comedy about America’s collective divorce (A House Divided).

Join actor/director Thoeger Hansen of Night Cook Studio as he talks with Crone about the plays in the collection and the ideas and stories behind them. The book can be purchased in advance on Amazon or at the event, which will be streamed live on YouTube.
