After a period of absence, John returns to preach an anti-war movement and becomes a Christ-like figure around whom a following gathers.
Two friends take opposing paths on the night of an anti-war protest: one attends, gets very drunk, and the other stays home watching television and thinking about the future. The play explores what happens when they hate each other.
John takes a break from his seven-year relationship with M and unexpectedly falls for W, a woman. At a dinner where M and W meet, each presses John to choose, while John struggles to understand what he wants and whether he can commit to either relationship.
Twenty short plays by a group of writers combine into an overarching theatrical narrative commemorating the tenth anniversary of the September 11 attacks.
Three sisters, long abandoned by their father, grapple with his apocalyptic climate forecasts. The eldest, a cabinet minister, weighs environmental protection against economic growth; the pregnant middle sister fears bringing a child into an uncertain future; and the youngest rebels against her career-minded sister. Their father’s predictions and the prospect of reconciliation bring the family back together.
A voyeuristic view of a couple's relationship, framed as reality television.
Charles and his family gather following the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II. Charles, as the new king, then holds his first weekly audience with the prime minister. They discuss a new bill for statutory regulation of the press, which has passed the House of Commons and the House of Lords and awaits only Charles' royal assent to become law. Charles is concerned that the law restricts freedom of the press too much, and would allow governments to censor the news and prevent legitimate uncovering of abuse of power by the government. He asks the prime minister for alterations to the bill, but the prime minister refuses. The two men spar, as the leader of the Opposition arrives for a weekly meeting with Charles, an innovation the new king has introduced. The leader of the Opposition expresses his own doubts on the bill, but he sees little alternative but for Charles to sign. In parallel, Prince Harry has begun a relationship with Jess Edwards, a republican. Both Charles and Prince William have seen the ghost of Diana, Princess of Wales, promising each man that he will become "the greatest king of all". One of his first actions is to refuse to give royal assent to the press regulation bill. The prime minister holds a crisis meeting with the leader of the Opposition and then goes alone to try to convince Charles to sign, but Charles continues to refuse. The prime minister then threatens to pass a new law bypassing the royal assent and then pass the press law, but Charles then dissolves Parliament before the prime minister can bring either of these plans into effect. Protests begin across the country and especially in London. Charles increases the army guard at Buckingham Palace, offers his protection to Jess (whom the press have made the centre of a sex scandal), and agrees to Harry's wish to become a commoner. The duchess of Cambridge (Prince William's wife Catherine) proposes a solution: William will serve as a mediator between Parliament and his father. William announces this plan at a press conference without his father's knowledge or consent. Seeing this as a betrayal, Charles reacts angrily. Ultimately, Charles is forced to abdicate in favour of William, who plans to sign the press bill and restore the status quo between king and Parliament. The play concludes with Harry's rejection of Jess, and William and Catherine's coronation as king and queen consort.
Ahead of the 2024 United States presidential election, Donald Trump picks his daughter, Ivanka, as his personal heir, and is introduced to her assistant and driver, Rosie Takahashi. Ted Cruz asks for Trump's endorsement in the Republican primaries, as Trump is no longer running for president. Later, at the funeral of Jimmy Carter, Joe Biden tells Kamala Harris that he is still uncertain over whether to run for election as the Democratic nominee. Trump crashes the funeral and, in secret, reveals to Biden that he knows compromising information about Jill Biden. Ivanka chastises her father for such a display, and is shown to be weary of her father's underestimation of her, which she plans to use for her own gain. Cruz invites Trump to a rally to announce Trump's endorsement of him, but caught up in the crowd's cheers, Trump turns on Cruz and promptly announces that he will be running for president again. Backstage, Rosie encounters her brother, political reporter Charlie Takahashi, and both spar over their differing political views, with Charlie being a liberal Democrat and Rosie a Trump-supporting Republican. Ivanka confirms Trump's announcement to a crowd of skeptical congressmen, and reveals that she will run as his vice president. Later, a day before the first presidential debate, Harris encounters a restless and paranoid Biden late at night, who is revealed to have been in that state since the encounter with Trump at Carter's funeral. Biden is fearful about the threat posed by Trump, but reveals he is no longer in the position to run for president and begs Harris to take his place, and resigns as president on the spot. Harris is promptly sworn in as president and Democratic nominee. A day later, while waiting to attend the debate with Rosie at a Michigan bar filled with Trump supporters, Charlie questions one about an apparent plan to attack an event and reveals his status as a reporter; he is promptly escorted away by them, leaving Rosie to search for him. The debate between Harris and Trump is then interrupted by the Trump supporters storming the venue, as Trump ends the debate and disappears into the crowd. Harris is evacuated as the street descends into chaos and violence. In the Situation Room, Harris observes the mob violence and is persuaded by her staff to arrest Trump to end the chaos and prevent further fatalities. Trump is arrested and imprisoned as Ivanka seizes control of his assets. Harris visits the incarcerated Trump and they exchange words, with her ultimately deciding free Trump out of fear that keeping him in prison will only make him a martyr. While celebrating her father's freedom alongside him, Ivanka is misogynistically chastised by Donald, leaving her to formulate a plan of revenge. Harris is told by her staff that newly-emboldened Trump supporters have now enforced mob rule on the streets, despite the National Guard's best efforts. Charlie, now blinded from his torture at the hands of the mob, is brought before Harris by an aide, as her staff persuades her to orchestrate Trump's death to end the violence, to which she refuses. As Harris leaves, the aide who brought Charlie in is then revealed to be Rosie. A week before the election, Trump leaves for a motorcade across D.C. with Rosie as his driver, as Ivanka sees him off. Shortly afterwards, a severely injured Trump is admitted to the hospital; Harris arrives to meet with him, and it is revealed that Rosie had crashed the car with her and Trump at the cost of her own life. Angered with Harris and with no health insurance due to Ivanka's efforts, Trump tears off his IV tubes to get the nurse's attention, but promptly collapses and dies. Ivanka arrives and discusses her father with Harris, and reveals how both of them have been alleged to be behind Donald's fate. Ivanka then reveals her anticipation for the upcoming election, for which she is now the Republican nominee, as Harris realizes the extent of Ivanka's machinations and displays anxiety over the future.
