Another Revolution

by Jacqueline Bircher

FULL LENGTH: Kat and Henry, two graduate students from opposing scientific disciplines, are forced to share a lab at Columbia University in 1968. Amid interpersonal differences, a campus devolving into political chaos, and the uncertainty and turmoil of the outside world, they each discover what it’s like to be thrown into someone else’s orbit.

    An incredibly beautiful play about a friendship that bonds despite external chaos. In the infinite cosmos of the universe, this connection is most important. Heartfelt, moving and well done!

    A wonderful two-hander with humor and insight and wonderful dialogue. You fall for the characters right away -- very distinct voices that rise and fall in harmony and discord both. Great turns for good actors here. Touching and timely!
