The four plays in this collection—"The Black Unicorn," "The Little Death," "The Revolution," and "And So We Walk"—are each distinct in their subject matter and style, but they are all united by King's signature blend of personal storytelling, social critique, and theatrical experimentation. Through these works, King invites us to confront our own biases, challenge societal norms, and explore the complexities of the human experience.
The Black Unicorn
In "The Black Unicorn," King tells the story of a young black woman named Luna who is struggling to find her place in a world that often seems hostile to her. As she navigates the challenges of racism, sexism, and classism, Luna encounters a series of characters who both help and hinder her on her journey. Ultimately, Luna must come to terms with her own identity and find the strength to define herself on her own terms.
The Little Death
"The Little Death" is a darkly comedic exploration of sex, power, and consent. The play follows a young woman named Eve as she navigates the treacherous waters of dating and relationships. Along the way, she encounters a series of men who range from charming to predatory. As Eve learns more about herself and her own desires, she must also learn to set boundaries and protect herself from those who would take advantage of her.
The Revolution
"The Revolution" is a powerful and timely play about the fight for social justice. The play follows a group of activists as they organize a protest against police brutality. As the protest grows in size and intensity, the activists face increasing opposition from the authorities. Ultimately, they must decide how far they are willing to go to fight for what they believe in.
And So We Walk
"And So We Walk" is a lyrical and moving meditation on the human condition. The play follows a group of people as they journey through life, facing challenges and obstacles along the way. As they walk, they share their stories, their hopes, and their dreams. Ultimately, the play is a celebration of the human spirit and the resilience of the human heart.
Alanis King Plays is a must-read for anyone who is interested in thought-provoking theater that explores the complexities of identity, art, and society. King's writing is sharp, witty, and compassionate, and her characters are both relatable and inspiring. This collection of plays is sure to leave a lasting impression on readers long after they finish reading it.
Alanis King Plays is available now from all major bookstores.
