A World of Flaws
by Frederick Silvers
Directed by Patrick Mullins, Asst Director: Jackie Adonis
Remy, overwhelmed by his own trauma, escapes to NYC where he finds success but ultimately spirals into theft and eviction. Forced to return home after burning bridges with family and friends, he faces a painful reality. As Remy struggles to regain control of his life and protect his sister, he must navigate old wounds and new dangers to find a way forward.
The Proteus New Plays Festival showcases staged readings of 4 scripts that have been developed in the Z Playwrights Lab or by Z Artist Members. The staged readings give the playwrights an opportunity to work with a director and a volunteer cast to see their script “on its feet” for the first time, and add the most crucial element to developing a play, The Audience!
Each reading is presented twice during Proteus Festival. Audiences have the opportunity to rate the plays via a survey focused on the elements of writing an engaging script and story. Ratings are averaged to select the PNPF Audience Favorite. The Audience Favorite receives a workshop production 2-week run in June, closing out our 24-25 Curtain Up! New Plays Series.
