Winner of the Kennedy Center Meritorious Achievement Award, the Downtown Urban Arts Festival Audience Award, and a Hopwood Award from the University of Michigan, America is a groundbreaking, provocative contemporary American drama that challenges us to examine our modern belief systems. Part traditional stage play and part movement piece, this highly innovative work utilizes mesmerizing sound collage, evocative music, and fluid physical theater to undress deep-seated stereotypes and prejudices. The text serves as an urgent, raw social commentary, exploring the complexity of ethnicity, race, religion, and culture in the United States. Written with a sharp, poetic, and cinematic rhythm, America moves beyond standard theatrical storytelling. It provides an immersive performance art experience that exposes the friction and beauty of modern identity. It is an ideal, high-impact choice for college or university theater departments, progressive regional theater companies, and independent directors seeking a powerful, award-winning play that pushes artistic boundaries and sparks vital community dialogue. This published volume contains the complete, performance-ready script along with a concise introduction, structural overview, and essential staging parameters.
