Some Assembly Required

The play explores questions of identity and how we define ourselves as individuals. Composed of short scenes it moves from realism, comic absurdism, abstract movement pieces and creative movement/text pieces. The characters range from college students grappling with affirmative action policies, bureaucratic office workers, 9/11 victims, and super-heroes. The work stems from the very specific yet unique view point of its young creators. The students and cast members, like many of their peers, are discovering who they are, what defines them as citizens and individuals, and what place they will take in the world at large and in our society.
