Voices 2000

The scenes, two-and three-character plus monologues, can be easily rehearsed with a flexible schedule, allowing ample opportunity for the director to do important individual work with the actors

These riveting scenes vary in intensity from the comic - a perfectly charming young woman who is a major klutz - to serious - a young teen mourns the shooting death of his brother; from whimsical -- a young woman reflects on her wonderful (but strange) parents - to devastating - Jacinda tells of faith and injustice during the L.A. riots

These deeply moving and often funny "voices" are woven with brilliance; they culminate in an overwhelmingly powerful collection of truths

The dialogue is honest and the issues are contemporary

Over a decade ago, Baker's Plays commissioned New York's Circle Rep playwright Peter Dee to create a dramatic work responsive to the contemporary journey of young adults

Since then, we've sold over a thousand productions of this powerful drama, and it has become one of the most influential plays for secondary schools

Now we offer Mr Dee's latest, a passionate, creative, deeply moving theatrical montage for young adults who are moving cautiously toward the end of the 20th century
