    Play Description

    TIME ALONE traces the parallel journeys of a young man convicted of killing a gang rival and a woman whose son — a police officer — is murdered in the line of duty. Both end up in places of extreme loneliness: a solitary confinement prison cell and the silent house of the bereaved. As time itself seems to unravel, their tales both contrast and mirror each other, providing answers to each other's questions — until they find new doors to life.

    Press Quotes

    “Alessandro Camon’s two-hander transpires in overlapping monologues between Anna Jackson, a traumatized shut-in whose police officer son was killed in the line of duty, and Gabriel Wayland, a prison inmate in solitary confinement. The characters — both sympathetic, both impassioned — hold forth about their radically different views on the nature of time, regret and the criminal justice system. Gabriel speaks from his cell, Anna from the prison-like home … His drama comes full circle in a beautifully realized denouement that emphasizes not only our human need for connection, but our innate and sometimes surprising capacity for forgiveness.” —F Kathleen Foley, Los Angeles Times

    “I was riveted … sharp writing and observations … In their haunted isolation, for all their differences, victim and perpetrator both experience time as a tool of torture. And then, in a twist I can’t give away, they discover a connection that carries with it a hint of redemption.” —Steve Lopez, Los Angeles Times

    “Stunning … Poetic writing … An inspired two-hander that casts a jaundiced eye on the criminal justice and prison systems … Camon employs the same grim nuance that was so successful in his Oscar-nominated screenplay for The Messenger … His familiarity with the subject brings immediacy as well as emotional and psychological veracity to his writing.” —The Hollywood Reporter

    Carter Bartosek, a foreign correspondent stationed in Beirut, returns to his Midwest hometown for the funeral of his best friend, a former congressman who apparently took his own life while high on alcohol and painkillers. Carter discovers that his friend had left the larger political arena in order to run for mayor of this town, which has transformed itself from an industrial community in decline to a high-tech hub, and that his progressive agenda might have alienated certain members of this now affluent municipality. Over the course of five days, Carter kicks through the ashes of his childhood and confronts those people whom he considers to be his extended family in search of the truth surrounding this alleged suicide. Was his friend murdered for his politics? And, if so, what does that say about Carter himself and this bucolic place he once called home?

    Midway through Albert Camus's The Stranger, an Arab is killed.

Their bitter rivalry ends with one brother being inexplicably gunned down by a French stranger.
