Levithan Lab presents TRIGGER by Playwright Sam Chanse

TRIGGER, a new play by New Dramatists playwright Sam Chanse begins performances at IATI Theatre on February 23rd.

When Lee recognizes childhood friend Allie in a video of a racist rant that goes viral, Lee's sister, Grace, urges her to reach out. As Lee becomes uncomfortably reacquainted with Allie, a deteriorating domestic situation and sudden crisis explode the world around her. In a time of heightened fear and anger, how can Lee connect with others, and contend with her own rage? A play about this country and this moment, the fury around and within us, and what happens next.

TRIGGER runs at IATI Theatre (64 East 4th Street) from Friday, February 23 through Sunday, March 11, 2018.

The cast of TRIGGER features Anna Ishida (Lee), Polly Lee (Allie), Dominque Brillon (Grace), Christina Pumariega (Gods/Eunice/Server), and Ron Domingo (Koji).
