Part comedy, part mystery, part rock concert, this thrilling new play toggles back and forth in time as a father and daughter face the music of the past.

Cambodian Rock Band is an epic play/rock concert that thrusts us into the life of a young woman trying to piece together her family history thirty years after her father fled Cambodia. Featuring actor/musicians who perform a mix of contemporary Dengue Fever hits and classic Cambodian oldies live, Lauren Yee brings to vivid life the Cambodian rock scene of the ’60s and ’70s, a movement cut short by the Khmer Rouge’s brutal attempt to erase the music (and musicians) once and for all. A story about survivors, the resilient bond of family, and the enduring power of music.

Illuminations

The fourth title in TCG Books’ Illuminations series is a thrilling drama that examines the pressures racism exerts both in the streets and in the newsrooms that cover them.Rookie journalist Yvonne arrives at her first big-city newspaper job determined to prove herself as a serious investigative reporter, only to be segregated with the other Black reporters at Outlook, a section focusing on human interest pieces designed to highlight positive developments in the Black community. When a white teacher is murdered in the Black neighborhood where he teaches, Yvonne jumps at a tantalizing lead pointing to a local all-girl gang as the culprit. Soon though, her story begins to conflict with the facts on the ground. As rival reporters chase down leads of their own, veteran writer Neil begins to suspect that this is not the first time Yvonne has told a dramatic story instead of the prosaic truth. What follows is a breathless depiction of an urban newsroom in crisis, as Yvonne races to get her stories straight—both the one she’s writing, and the one she tells about herself.

In the plays collected here-Ramp and Mushroom-Pulitzer Prize finalist Eisa Davis mingles modes of myth and speculation, documentary and fiction in two plays about family, desire, restorative justice, ecological sustainability, and immigration amongst the working class. Ramp adapts the foundational Egyption saga of Isis / Osiris and sets on a near-future airline ramp, where siblings Isis, Osiris, Seth, and Nepthys throw luggage on planes and bicker about our thorny, precipitate futurity: should change be fast or gradual? Can the ecological revolution we require for survival produce ease and peace if it's rooted in violence? Is the path to utopia brutal? Must it be? Mushroom centers on the lives, loves, and working conditions of the Mexican and Central American mushroom-pickers in and around the town of Kennett Square, Pennsylvania, where over 40% of all the&nbsp;mushrooms&nbsp;we eat in this country come from.&nbsp;Through a series of intersecting narratives&nbsp;traversed by English, Spanish, K'iche' and Malayalam speakers, Mushroom considers a workplace dispute that has serious ramifications for multiple immigrant families, mapping how&nbsp;compassion and justice might intersect.

"On March 13, 2020, as theaters shut their doors and so many of us went into lockdown, Suzan-Lori Parks picked up her pen and set out to write a play every day. What emerged is a ... chronicle of our collective experience throughout the troubling days and nights that followed. Plays for the Plague Year is at once a personal story of one family's daily lives, as well as a sweeping account of all we faced as a city, a nation, and a global community. Parks' ... work is brimming with humanity, bears witness to what we've experienced, and offers inspiration as we look ahead"--

A stunning collection of plays from Pulitzer Prize-winning 
playwright Suzan-Lori Parks that captures the societal rupture of the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic. On March 13, 2020, as theaters shut their doors and the world
went into lock­down, Suzan-Lori Parks picked up her pen and set out to write a
play every day. What emerged is a breathtaking chronicle of our collective
experience through­out the troubling days and nights that followed. Parks’s
groundbreaking new work bears witness to what we’ve experienced and offers
inspiration as we look ahead.

Plays for the Plague Year

I know you hey. You're the one that's always in the back of the library. Like a little library gremlin. Eating up knowledge. And Haribo...It's a new term at college and, for most of the Sixth Form students, all that matters are mocks, UCAS applications and whether or not Elliot Park and Georgia Smith had sex in the study room at lunchtime. After losing the election for student president, Aicha throws all her energy into the school's 'Extended Physics Project' - or, as she calls it, Space Club. One afternoon, Aicha is surprised by the appearance of the usually introverted and distant Bo, doubling the membership of Space Club. Whilst Aicha is thrilled to have a mysterious new friend, Bo is distracted by the black hole at the heart of her home life. She's worked so hard to launch herself into bigger and better things - but will Grud eclipse her efforts and pull her off course?Sarah Power's Grud is an exploration of pain and addiction in the relationship between a father and daughter. This edition was published to coincide with the world premiere at London's Hampstead Theatre Downstairs in June 2024.

Trained in classical piano and Marxism and raised on jazz, gospel, pop, hip hop, and Black revolutionary politics, Pulitzer Prize finalist Eisa Davis's plays are marked by her stunning intimacy with the praxis of music alongside radical change. In Angela's Mixtape,&nbsp;time shifts like a mixtape,&nbsp;and like a mixtape, the play is both a memoir and a gift-for us, of course, and for Davis's aunt,&nbsp;activist and scholar Angela Y. Davis, under whose tutelage Davis reads&nbsp;Das Kapital and&nbsp;learns to drive stick and&nbsp;hack her own way toward inheriting her legacy. In The History of Light, Davis counterpoints the intertwining fates of two couples under racialized pressures a generation apart. Lush with the sound of the grand piano, The History of Light is a study in black and white, love and alienation.&nbsp;Underlying the political clarity and formal virtuosity of Davis's writing are the unexpected crackles of a voice warming up, the crunchiness of missed notes. Because for an artist concerned, like Davis, with how we become who we are and might be, error is a necessary instrument-maybe the sounding weight.
