Trauma Play
MAY 22 - JUNE 2, 2025
IAMA THEATRE COMPANY PRESENTS A WORKSHOP PRODUCTION
Written by abigail miller
Directed by Diana wyenn
When Britt Benson gets buzzy reviews for the premiere of her new play, her life begins spiraling out of control and into a meta-upon-meta s***storm. Newly famous, Britt finds the sexual assault she endured at age six suddenly publicized, scrutinized, and poked full of holes. Can she even trust her own memory? First given a staged reading by IAMA as part of last season’s New Works Festival, Abigail Miller’s darkly comic play is now set for a full-on workshop production.
Workshop Productions live in the space between a Staged Reading and Opening Night of a world premiere production. With workshop productions, the focus is on process instead of product and YOU, as our audience, are a key part of that process.
Our playwrights will continue working on the play, making edits, and writing new pages until closing night, based in part on audience response. Meanwhile, our creative team will explore design ideas, focusing on one area of design especially and how it can aid in bringing the play to life. This new model of production allows the show to significantly change from opening to closing night, so we encourage you to come more than once to see how your feedback has helped it evolve.
All performances will take place at Atwater Village Theatre, 3269 Casitas Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90039
SHOWTIME AT 8:00PM BOX OFFICE OPENS AT 7:30PM
