Development Workshop of a new original play
By Sophia Valera Heinecke
Directed byTatiana Baccari

You are invited to our reading on Monday, July 29th. Doors open at 6:30pm. We will begin promptly at 7pm.

Set in Forks, Washington during the height of the Twilight craze in 2012, New Nostalgias moves through the day with Lara, a Quilleute Indigenous American diner waitress and ex-con, Serena, a lonely fridge fixer, and a genderless Blockbuster Employee who also happens to be a vampire. An interactive play that utilizes music, projection, and sensory stimulation of memory, New Nostalgias explores the complexity of memory tied to media and asks: will humanity and nature always be at odds?

Following the reading we invite you to engage in a discussion around the themes of the play.

If you feel so inclined, please bring a nostalgic item with you to the reading.

*Item will not be harmed in any way!*
