  • Ryan Stevens: Wayfinding by Whitney Reece Rowland
    “

    Magical realism that bleeds off the stage and into your heart. These terribly human characters working through tragedies and losses big and small make their pain make so much sense, and Rowland navigates this fraught landscape of self-destruction, grief, and the pain of being known with absolute ease. This is a play that makes emotional storytelling look so easy -- and that's not an easy feat.

    I had the opportunity to see a staged reading of this beautiful and unique script at The Last Frontier Theatre Conference in Valdez. It is sad, funny, and completely magical. I very much hope that I have the opportunity to see a full production in the future.

    It is the Eugene O'Neill Theater Center's pleasure to recommend Whitney Rowland and their play WAYFINDING as a finalist for our 2017 National Playwrights Conference. The play rose through a competitive, anonymous, multileveled selection process that took nearly nine months to execute. As one of 55 finalists out of more than 1,300 submissions, the strength of its writing has allowed this work to prosper in such a competitive selection process. Our readers responded to the play’s delicate, melancholic tone and understated approach to the interconnectedness of the human experience.
