REVERSE TRANSCRIPTION, Hauntings from Pandemics Past and Present, features Robert Chesley’s DOG PLAYS and the world premiere of Jim Petosa and Jonathan Adler’s A VARIANT STRAIN, both directed by Jim Petosa.

This pairing of plays sees the AIDS epidemic (DOG PLAYS) as a prologue to the COVID pandemic (A VARIANT STRAIN). By looking back, we see our present with new eyes, deeper understanding and a moment of unexpected healing.
