Illumination Rounds – A New Play Reading
Set in a totalitarian state during the final days of civil war, a cynical and opportunistic journalist finds himself trapped in an abandoned apartment with a young female sniper on a fatal mission. As the world explodes outside, the two attempt to move beyond their deep-seated fears and prejudices by revealing the circumstances that brought them to this point. Illumination Rounds is a play about the razor-sharp tension of looking and being seen, knowing and being known, and the divine relief that maybe you're not alone even when the world is crumbling around you. Look at each other.
Reading time: approx. 90 minutes, no intermission.
