In The Continuum

PHILADELPHIA PREMIERE · 2006 OBIE AWARD-WINNER!
Written & performed by Danai Gurira & Nikkole Salter
Directed by Robert O'Hara
March 16 - April 15, 2007

This 2005 Off-Broadway surprise sensation, named by both the New York Times and New York Magazine as one of the top four plays of 2005, has received critical and audience acclaim across the globe. Its limited Philadelphia engagement is not to be missed! Living worlds apart in L.A. and Zimbabwe, two young women experience a kaleidoscopic weekend of darkly comic events when their lives are changed forever as each is diagnosed with HIV. Portraying a rich array of characters, playwrights/actresses Danai Gurira and Nikkole Salter offer a funny, mesmerizing, and highly theatrical evening of parallel denials and resonant self-discoveries. A production of Primary Stages and the Perry Street Theatre. In The Continuum is most appropriate for children ages 13 and older.

Gurira and Salter create vivid personalities. Moving and surprisingly warm and funny!   –Philadelphia City Paper  [Review]

There is not a hint of "preachiness" here, only inspired and unwaveringly honest performances.
