ALONG THE LINE is a new project by Heidi Van. ALONG THE LINE is a community based generative project that produces a theatrical response using a framework of specifics – time, location and duration. This first project culminated with very, very short plays written by local playwrights. Playwrights were invited to participate by Heidi Van, and, after accepting the invitation was issued a prompt and very specific dates for generation. The writers were prompted on the morning of January 10 and had a deadline of January 22, 2017. Along that line of our shared history as Americans was Obama’s farewell address, the inauguration of the 45th President, the Women’s March and other days filled with many different thoughts and feelings and headlines. Looking back on that time now, it could be referred to “the calm before the storm,” even though it wasn’t that calm.
