Synopsis

Includes: Behold the Coach, in a Blazer, Uninsured; Ladies and Gentlemen, the Rain; Enter the Spokeswoman, Gently; The Bully Composition; and Oh, the Humanity

Five short plays about being alive.

We’d like you to meet a bunch of people with something on their mind. There’s a coach with an awkward confession to make and a spokeswoman who doesn’t know what to say. This man and that woman want to fall in love, but they’re not quite sure how. Oh, and these people want to take your picture, so just act natural, ok? Witty, charming and playful, Oh, The Humanity exposes the terrible hope and hilarious uncertainty of our lives, through the eyes of one of New York’s hottest playwrights.

His play The Realistic Joneses had its world premiere at the Yale Repertory Theater, in April 2012. His play Middletown was a winner of the Horton Foote Award and was produced at the Vineyard Theater in New York and Steppenwolf in Chicago. His play Thom Pain (based on nothing), played at the Edinburgh Festival, the Soho Theatre in London, the DR2 in New York, and in translation around the world.

His other plays include Tragedy: a tragedy and The Flu Season. In 2012 Eno was a joint recipient of the PEN award for an American Playwright in Mid-Career. Praise for Will Eno’s writing: “Mr. Eno’s voice is so assuredly his own, simultaneously delicate and audacious in its measurements of poetry, philosophy and Monty Pythonesque silliness” - New York Times; “He strikes me as being the real thing, a real playwright. He takes every chance. And Will keeps the voice his own: he has an awareness of the human condition I wish more people his age had.” - Edward Albee
