ABOUT THE PLAY:
Animals Out of Paper, by Rajiv Joseph
Directed by Maureen Towey
Runs through December 19th, 2009
Nominated for a 2009 Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding Play. A stunning new work filled with dynamic, funny characters, colorful imagery and emotional power. Origami artist Ilana Andrews has lost a great deal in her life, but the inspiration she seeks is about to walk through the door of her cluttered studio apartment. Suresh is a phenomenally talented high school student whose boredom with calculus is offset by a love of rhyme and a new interest in freestyle folding. Andy is the calculus teacher who brings them together.
“…delicately explosive…” – talkinbroadway.com
“Humorous but touching…” –Time Out New York
“Rajiv Joseph is one of the most refreshing new playwrights I’ve ever encountered.
He’s crafted a substantial play, funny and sad, down-to-earth and unpretentious, with
a great deal of meaning.” – nytheatre.com
