IF I FORGET and Other Plays By Steven Levenson is Published This Month

Theatre Communications Group will publish If I Forget and Other Plays by Steven Levenson. If I Forget had its world premiere at Roundabout Theatre Company in February 2017.

In If I Forget, Michael Fischer reunites with his sisters to celebrate their father’s seventy-fifth birthday. Each deeply invested in their own ver­sion of family history, the siblings clash over everything from Michael’s controversial scholarly work to the pressures of caring for their ailing parent. As destructive secrets bubble to the surface, the three negotiate how much of the past they’re willing to sacrifice for a chance at a new beginning. This debut collection also includes The Unavoidable Disappearance of Tom Durnin and The Language of Trees.

Steven Levenson’s other works include Days of Rage, Core Values, and Seven Minutes in Heaven, and the book for the musical Dear Evan Han­sen. Honors include a Tony Award, an Obie Award, two Outer Critics Circle Awards, a Writers Guild Award, and the John Gassner Memorial Playwriting Award.
