BY NATHAN ALAN DAVIS
DIRECTED BY MORGAN GREEN
April 11–30, 2023
This new play, set in the near future, centers on an idealistic family … and the goose that just came with the house.
An American family meets the future: space travel, talking animals, a state-of-the-art home, while attempting to answer the same big question: how to live a meaningful life.
Playwright Nathan Alan Davis is a virtuosic writer, with three premieres across the country this season.
Eternal Life, Part 1 is inspired by questions about family, how you pass on what you have to the next generation, and the impossibility of getting everything right as a parentPlaywright Nathan Alan Davis
Eternal Life, Part 1 is directed by Lead Artistic Director Morgan Green, who helmed the virtual production of James Ijames’ Pulitzer Prize-winning play Fat Ham, and features the Wilma’s HotHouse Acting Company.
This modern fable is also filled with humor and whimsy. “There are talking snowflakes, a goose, and more, but Davis uses these playful elements to dig into big questions,” Green said.
Safety plans and entry requirements will be announced closer to performance dates.
