Jessica Dickey: Nan and the Lower Body

Nan and the Lower Body

Yale Drama Series

The seventeenth winner of the Yale Drama Prize, a deeply personal celebration of trans identity and the magic it takes to define yourself in our world &nbsp; After one night together in the desert, Grace uproots their life to chase after Brahm, a person who is slowly becoming a cactus. Not known for having a green thumb, Grace tends to Brahm and the seeds of their own doubt. Can the desert be a place for love to grow, or are they both just waiting for rain? This deeply personal play aims to provide nourishment to those hiding in the shadows and create a space of recognition and magic for all. &nbsp; Of this year’s prizewinning play, Yale Drama Prize judge and award-winning playwright Jeremy O. Harris says, “In this time of immense political and social upheaval when it feels as though hopelessness is a cloud that hangs heavy over all our interactions, this dry spell hit me like a cleansing rain.”

The Seagull

Elements in Theatre, Performance and the Political

The Methuen Drama Book of Trans Plays Volume 2

Ben has been dreading his self-assessment form, with every transaction evoking the good times and the bad - memories of things gone wrong, gone right, journeys taken, relationships that have begun and ended. Prompted by frequent calls to the Inland Revenue helpline, Ben relives the humiliations, successes and tragedies of the last twelve months, stitching together hismemories of the Tax Year 2009/2010 from tiny scraps of paper.Graham presents an affectionate and funny portrait of a year in the life of one nervous self-employed man, pieced together from receipts, shopping and commercial transactions. With a web of narratives, the play's structure is innovative and flexible; in performance, each receipt triggers a unique story as the actor plucks the receipts from the audience's hands at random.

Elements in the Gothic

Music plays an essential role in Gothic in the years 1789-1820, but it signifies very differently at the end of the period compared with the beginning. In the 1790s, the music of Gothic novels and plays is not Gothic music; it is celebratory, calming or transcendent rather than scary. By 1820, the music of Gothic is more likely to provoke shock, discomfort and unease. Melodrama brings about this change. Its ascendancy had long-lasting effects on the music of the Gothic more generally - in fiction and poetry, on the stage and the screen. The book considers work by writers including Ann Radcliffe, Matthew Lewis, Eliza Fenwick, Samuel Taylor Coleridge and James Boaden in conjunction with music by composers such as Michael Kelly, Stephen Storace and Samuel Arnold. Audio files of the music accompany the book.

The Music of the Gothic 1789–1820

Malorie Blackman's celebrated novel about a boy in need of a heart transplant, adapted for the stage by Winsome Pinnock. First performed in 2025 at the Unicorn Theatre, London, before touring the UK.

Pig Heart Boy

This collection brings Crothers's best plays back into the public eye, outside of archives, to prove their continued relevance to life in the 21st century. The issues raised in plays such as Susan and God (1937), Mary the Third (1923), and A Man's World (1910) concern career versus motherhood/parenthood, marriage, the double standard, generational divisions providing representations that audiences today understand and appreciate. Rachel Crothers was considered in her own time to be "the most famous woman playwright in America" (Charles E. Barnum, Sunday Morning Star). At her peak, 26 of her plays graced Broadway and touring stages, on par with Eugene O'Neill's record, and Hollywood adapted more than half of those for the silver screen, making her one of the most prominent playwrights of the early 20th century. Forgotten Broadway is the first edited collection of plays by Crothers, demonstrating her impressive accomplishments as a writer-director during one of the most important periods of Broadway history. Known by her contemporaries as an "all-around woman of the theatre" due to her double duty as a writer and practitioner, despite all her successes, her plays have fallen out of print and are rarely produced in any theatrical setting.
