Mission Statement

Our international cast voices original stories from eleven authors. Each episode of this anthology series explores how we navigate our world, facing our fears even when we feel powerless. A Blind Play reveals a cross-section of humanity at our best and our worst. We are, after all, only human.

The Story

Season Three of A Blind Play (of Social Forces) is storytelling at its best. Each episode is a new story adapted from the work of some of the most talented writers working today--writers whose voices beg to be heard.


And you can hear them while you walk, drive, work out, or clean thanks to the extraordinary talent of this season's cast.



In Kadamati by Chiara Vascotto, dancer and choreographer Akram Khan brings together communities of all backgrounds and abilities to experience a collective creative process as Great Britain faces a Brexit vote.


Processing by Narineh Tahmasebian, James is arrested and charged with domestic violence when he and his girlfriend Charlotte argue on a sidewalk.


Charleston. Twenty-Two by Eric Willis, Eric, a young, naive, gay man receives some unsolicited guidance from his older, experienced cousin Jona.


The River by Jarred Robert Todd, Julia is shunned from her religious group after committing an unforgivable crime. When her friend Jason tries to help her, he must make a life-altering choice.


In Barbecue by Ron Pullins, former Argentine dissident Enrico shares painful memories from his past as he cooks a pork loin for guests.


In The Quiet One by Alan Veale, Dot, suffering from dementia, tries desperately to get rid of her lazy husband Bernie who won't get out of his easy chair.


In Who Cares? by Alan Veale and S.P. Franksson, Julie shares the details of her brutal day caring for people. But who is listening?


The trio Jumbie Daddy, Spoiling Fruit, & Children Play While Shadows Walk by Neala Luna Bhagwansingh provides a snapshot of life in Trinidad & Tobago, from poverty to parenting to magic.


In Eye in the Garden by Gary Egan, The Eden Society creates a system of satellites that will take away free will. Now, two engineers must decide if they will play God, the serpent, or both.


In Cosmic Interference by Gary Egan, a pair of alien talk show hosts take us on a journey through time, organized religion, and human brutality.


Hero's Eyes by Will Robin is narrated by a peregrine falcon as he observes his falconer, 15-year-old Latina Jessie.
