COMING IN SPRING, 2009!
A NEW PRODUCTION OF NIGHT SKY
to be produced off-Broadway by Power Productions/Stan Raiff
in association with the National Aphasia Association and directed
by Daniella Topol

NIGHT
SKY is the drama of Anna, a brilliant astronomer
who is struck by a car and rendered aphasic.
Her speech becomes a hodgepodge of disconnected words alternately
poetic, funny, confusing and
profound. She and her family must fight through the black
holes of her mind and journey into an
unfamiliar world and a new language. This is a work about
the resiliency of the human spirit and the
universal need to find words for our deepest thoughts and
feelings.
VARIETY: NIGHT SKY
is a rare thing: a play with a mind. It is also about the
mind as universe, where
language is internal astronomy. It shows us that more than
hearts can be broken.
SUNDAY STAR, JOHANNESBURG:
A mind lost in a black hole, groping for words in the spaces
between stars,
struggling to communicate with "elephants on tongue"
a fascinating play, interweaving tragedy and emotion
with the enduring mystery of the cosmos.
