SUMMARY:Chautauqua Theater Company Presents New Play Workshop 2: The Motions by Zora Howard
DESCRIPTION:In the wake of an untimely prognosis\, a father and son must relearn how to share space after years of estrangement. They pass the time with quiet rituals – making coffee\, playing chess – navigating what is left to say and what is better left unsaid. Funny\, tender\, and deeply human\, The Motions is an ode to the small movements that make a life\, and the possibility of beginning again even at our very ends.

SUMMARY:Chautauqua Theater Company Presents FutureNow New Play Lab 2: ERASERS: A Bloodthirsty Comedy
