About this ebook
If you're not ready there's still hope for you. The change we aren't ready for transforms us. I'm ripping it down.
Somewhere in foggy Northern California, an intentional community tries to live off the land and keep an unsteady world at bay. But when one of their own dies unexpectedly, ideals are tested and faith in their independence is rocked. The Burning Cauldron of Fiery Fire is a tender, funny, probing story about a death, a pageant, a rescue, a resurrection, pigs, and the act of saying grace. The kids may not be all right.
Published to coincide with the world-premiere production at the Vineyard Theatre in New York, renowned American playwright Anne Washburn re-unites with Obie-Award winning director Steve Cosson, following their acclaimed collaborations on Mr. Burns, A Post-Electric Play (downright brilliant, NYT) and A Devil at Noon.
