On the night of their 20th high school reunion, the self-proclaimed “Multi-Ethnic Reject Group” reconnects while they pregame in Prince George’s County, Maryland. But amid the flow of reminiscing, an otherworldly presence forces these former classmates to face the past head-on and reckon with an unknowable future. The latest from MacArthur Genius Award- winner Branden Jacobs-Jenkins (An Octoroon, Appropriate, Gloria), this “mesmerizing” (The Wrap) new play garnered a New York Times Critic’s Pick and Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding Play. Featuring Erika Rose, member of Woolly Mammoth’s Company of Artists, in collaboration with The Wilma’s HotHouse.

a Waterwell production, presented by Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company in association with The Public Theater
October 7

This excavation of the testimonies of Anita Hill and Christine Blasey Ford is revisited in the nation’s capital in a special debut presentation of a new play. Ford and Hill, 30 years apart, stood in front of one of the highest bodies of power in our country to publicly tell their stories about some of the most private moments of their lives. With an ensemble of four actors speaking from the verbatim transcripts of these pivotal hearings, these two women’s stories can be seen in a new light when side-by-side in Waterwell’s illuminating new work.   

 

Show titles and dates for January-June 2025 to be announced.
