Department of Dreams: Recent Dystopian Plays from Across the World

These dystopian
dramas envision and interrogate scenes of extremity on the planet and within
the social order. They depict a world that is inundated; a world deprived of
water; a world that feeds on scraps, that runs on vestiges; a world that is devoid
of any natural habitat; and foresee the furthermost assault of authoritarianism.
Scattered among the scenarios are acts of radical selfishness. One text invents
a stratagem that depends on radical love.
