By Lisa Sanaye Dring Directed by Jesca Prudencio A National New Play Network Rolling World Premiere Originally Developed as Part of the Geffen Writers’ Room Originally Produced by Know Theatre of Cincinnati
Kairos is the story of two people falling in love during a tectonic shift in society. Their nascent relationship is tested by the advent of Prometheus, a procedure that grants immortality to a select few. What happens to commitment, meaning and care when linear time breaks open? At once both a dystopian science-fiction play and a dark-comedy love story, Kairos is a deeply sensitive investigation of two humans whose ideal “happily-ever-after” is terrifyingly outpaced by relentless technological and societal upheaval.
Kairos was originally developed as part of the Geffen Playhouse Writers' Room 2021/2022. Kairos is produced at East West Players as part of a National New Play Network (NNPN) Rolling World Premiere. Other Partner Theaters are Know Theatre of Cincinnati (Cincinnati, OH) and Theatre Nova (Ann Arbor, MI). For more information, please visit nnpn.org.
