To create a MANIFESTO SERIES volume, Rain City Projects commissions a nationally recognized playwright to write a mission for or vision of what theater could be. They then edit a compilation of plays, culled from the ranks of works with a link to the Pacific Northwest that best illustrate their personal manifesto for the theater. WELCOME TO THE THEATER OF COST. I am not referring to any kind of monetary exchange. I am talking about the price you extract from your audience, your witnesses, your co-conspirators, the eternal exchange of time and attention for an experience that should leave them irrevocably changed. -- So begins Lauren Yee's manifesto for volume 5. This anthology includes the plays Terra Incognita by Benjamin Benne, Nadeshiko by Keiko Green, Roz and Ray by Karen Hartman, Bo-Nita by Elizabeth Heffron, Sound by Don X. Nguyen, and Do It For Umma by Seayoung Yim. RAIN CITY PROJECTS is dedicated to supporting, promoting and developing professional playwrights and their work in the Pacific Northwest. Our goals include raising the profile of the playwright within the working theater community and furthering an understanding of the playwright's role to the larger community.
