The Inventor
Author(s):
Brief synopsis: A famous scientist and immigrant on the cusp of completing an invention to benefit mankind is plagued by post-war PTSD and medical negligence, accelerated by the loss of Khadija, his talented prodigy. As he walks the line between genius and madness, his life-defining work, a new fantastical invention thought impossible by science, is threatened to derail. This full-length experimental play is concerned about medical trauma, the imprint of the Holocaust, and the struggle to move forward from the past.
