GLASS. KILL. WHAT IF IF ONLY. IMP.
April 3 - May 4, 2025
North American Premiere of All Four Plays Presented Together
GLASS. KILL. WHAT IF IF ONLY. IMP.
By Caryl Churchill
Directed by James Macdonald
A girl made of glass. Gods and murders. A pack of ghosts. And a secret in a bottle. A kaleidoscope of stories, each short play is a testament to how playwright Caryl Churchill has “remade the landscape of contemporary drama—and earned herself a place among the greats” (The Guardian). James Macdonald directs these wildly inventive new works. The Public’s production marks the first time all four plays will be presented together in North America.
GLASS. KILL. IMP. had their World Premiere in 2019 at the Royal Court Theatre, London. WHAT IF IF ONLY had its North American premiere in 2021 with remote live performances presented by the National Asian American Theatre Company, realized by Les Waters and Jared Mezzocchi.
