NNPN ANNOUNCES CONTINUED LIFE
OF NEW PLAYS FUND PROJECT
SICK by ZAYD DOHRN

NNPN is pleased to announce that SICK by Zayd Dohrn's new drama SICK is the latest play to be selected to participate in the Continued Life of New Plays Fund. Featured during NNPN's 2007 National Showcase of New Plays, SICK tells the story of Maxine and her two children, who can't leave their house due to their ultra-severe allergies. Allergic to oil, asbestos, cheez whiz, and city air, they survive on deliveries and internet chat rooms. But when Maxine’s husband brings a guest home to dinner, everyone's diseases spin out of control.

As part of the project, SICK will be produced by Kitchen Dog Theater (Dallas) May 30 - June 28, 2008; New Jeresey Repertory Company (Long Branch) March 1 - April 1, 2009; and Southern Rep (New Orleans) March 11 - April 5, 2009.
