MARCH SCRIPT COLLECTION

Here at the Playwrights' Center, we choose to assume good intent among our members and their work. Yet, we also want to provide a space that allows for constructive feedback from various identities, backgrounds, and experiences. Sometimes, a piece of writing can be unintentionally triggering for a variety of reasons. If you find yourself uncomfortable at any moment, don't feel pressured to continue reading. If you read a play description and are unsure whether it's right for you, please email Alayna Jacqueline Barnes, alaynab@pwcenter.org, for further information—including spoilers if that's what you need.

UNDER YOU MOTHER'S FEET by Eugene O'Reilly

An aging mother is dying of cancer and her only caregiver is her estranged daughter who has converted to Islam despite her mother's bigotry. When her twin sister shows up after eight years for closure, things do not go well for the three.

Is this script right for you?
This play includes cultural and racial slurs, hateful language specific to the Muslim community, an act of violence, and maternal judging and disappointment.
