The Queer Couch

This new play will be presented as a LAB Workshop. Workshops are an essential part of the play development process. We are proud to offer this as part of our On The Radar (OTR) New Works Program that aims to support the creation of diverse new stories by emerging U.S. playwrights.

Zayn, Nola, and Tia are three friends at Kennedy College who are each having trouble moving past the misery and humiliation of their high school experience. When the three get together and recount their own unresolved pain they decide to enact their revenge by returning to high school and situating themselves at the top of the food chain. However, when their differing objectives and desires start to run into each other, a power struggle ensues within the group itself.
