    Press Quotes

    “IN TIMES OF DISASTER introduces three exciting new playwrights, all first-year students in the Playwriting Department of the Yale School of Drama, all born within six months of each other; one from Miami, one from DC, one from England. A deep and clear moral center runs through these plays, all of which ask us to look not only at our lives but at the state of our world. Only twenty-six years old, these three playwrights can still remember what it was like to believe in things and be innocent, so it is even all the more heartbreaking when they show us how far from innocence our world has come.” —Richard Nelson
