Actors will perform from isolation as part of a series of short plays responding to the coronavirus pandemic. Playwrights and directors have announced the new digital plays, described as an “immediate and intimate” theatre experience. “The plays will respond to how our understanding and experiences of community, education, work, relationships, family, culture, climate and capitalism are evolving on an unprecedented scale. “We will be rehearsing digitally and streaming directly to homes in isolation around the world. Our quest is to connect a population in isolation through a series of short dramas.”Headlong and Century Films will publish the series online in April for audiences to stream directly from their homes.
