Description

"Each play I see by Phyllis Nagy confirms me in the belief that she is

the finest playwright to have emerged in the 1990s" (Alistair Macaulay,

Financial Times)

Weldon

Rising: Downtown New York. The temperature is soaring. In the

meat-packing district, Natty Weldon's lover is casually butchered by a

homicidal homophobe. The witnesses do not intervene. Natty flees in

terror, two lesbians watch from their apartment window and a flamboyant

transvestite prostitute cowers in the street below. But life changes

for them after the murder.

Disappeared: Sarah Casey, a travel

agent who has never been anywhere, meets the mysterious Elston Rupp in

a bar in New York's Hell's Kitchen. They walk out together and she is

never seen again. Was she murdered, has she escaped from the city of

loners, or has she simply vanished?

Nagy is "the laconic laureate of this spiritual wasteland" (Paul Taylor, Independent)
