"You Will Get Sick," Sound Theatre, Center Theater at Seattle Armory, Seattle Center
You Will Get Sick by playwright Noah Diaz is a new play in second person and a recipient of the Kennedy Center’s Jean Kennedy Smith Playwriting Award.
The story begins with a loss of balance that spreads through the body, ultimately leading to the act of hiring a stranger to say aloud what one cannot bear to say: that you got sick. The play explores learning how to live within your body as you find your way home.
New York Times Critic’s Pick—that “tells its tale in the most lively, surreal and surprising ways imaginable,” as the Times goes on to say. “It flies by, feeling even shorter yet fuller than its 85 minutes.”

"Continuity," Blue Hour Theater Group, 12th Ave Arts Building, Capitol Hill
A sheet of ice sits in the desert of New Mexico. A mad eco-terrorist plants a bomb in order to save humankind. A beleaguered film crew tries to get in one last shot before losing the light. In Continuity, a "play in six takes", storytelling and science collide with hilarious and devastating consequences.
CONTINUITY interrogates the role of storytelling in a world on the brink of actual environmental crisis and asks "How do we keep going when hope can seem as fictional as a Hollywood ending?" and also, "What's for lunch?"
