Recent Tragic Events
By Craig Wright
Directed by Ben Dostalek
October 22-27 at 7:30 PM | Oakwood 154
Set on the day after 9/11, Recent Tragic Events follows Waverly, a young ad executive in Minneapolis, as she navigates a blind date while anxiously awaiting news about her missing twin sister in New York. As strange visitors and surreal coincidences pile up—including a sock puppet incarnation of Joyce Carol Oates—the play explores fate, uncertainty, and human connection in the shadow of tragedy.
Produced by special arrangement with Dramatists Play Service.
