A New Twist

This year, we decided to do Twisted Valentines a little differently. Instead of writers submitting works they had written, a bold group of 8 playwrights gathered together to write new pieces for the 2020 Twisted Valentine's show. The playwrights were given a shared location (a restaurant in Pleasantville), some character prompts and sent on their way. Several weeks later, the drafts came in and we all began the process of integrating the plays for a cohesive evening.

 

What we discovered is that we had 8 vignettes documenting the comings and goings of customers and staff at "Il Ristorante di Bruno" over the course of Valentine's Day. It is our pleasure to invite you into that world with:
