Humana Festival 2012: The Complete Plays brings together all ten scripts from the 2012 Humana Festival of New American Plays, the 36th annual cycle of world premiere productions staged at Actors Theatre of Louisville. This unique compilation features an exceptional array of work by some of the most exciting new voices in the American theatre, from a group of suburban kids in the late 80s who forge a cultural identity through hip hop (How We Got On), to a rich, dying woman who suspects her nurse is being paid off to expedite her death (Death Tax), to a 500-year-old Austrian vampire struggling with the existential grind of modern living (Michael von Siebenburg Melts Through the Floorboards). This original and diverse collection of plays is a must-have for anyone seeking fresh, daring, and compelling theater.
