Human Resources
by Jason Gray Platt
Playing on Air is proud to present the winner of our 2019 James Stevenson Prize: Jason Gray Platt’s HUMAN RESOURCES.
Tech start-up Diddly has a problem: their staff is whiter than a Coldplay concert in Vermont. Fortunately, Human Resources has a plan to “improve” Diddly’s corporate culture —at least in theory.
A biting satire about virtue signaling and elephant milk, HUMAN RESOURCES features Tony winner Julie White (Airline Highway, A Doll’s House, Part 2) and Tony nominee Steven Boyer. Jade King Carroll (Hello, From the Children of Planet Earth, Proof of Love) directs the world premiere, recorded live at New York’s Pershing Square Signature Center.
Redeemed
By Chisa Hutchinson
A chilling and surprising audio drama directed by Jade King Carroll, starring Vanessa Kai and Michael Esper. Trevor Barlow, the domestic terrorist who killed Claire Yiang’s brother 9 years ago writes begging her to visit him in prison. When Claire arrives, the killer claims he’s a changed man - thanks to the help of her brother’s ghost. Is her brother’s murderer capable of redemption, or just attempting to impress the parole board?
Isolated Incidents
By Pascal Florestal, Nicholas Kaidoo, Laura Neill, Jaymes Sanchez, Hayley Spivey
ISOLATED INCIDENTS follows five essential workers and their families as they grapple with anxiety and the need for honesty--and how race impacts every interaction and decision they make. The series shows that maybe all those isolated incidents aren’t so isolated after all. This majority-BIPOC majority-queer collective of writers capture stories that center the invisible front line - workers who are essential inside of the pandemic, and the lives they lead behind the job. The stories that don’t make the headlines but are just as important.
NIGHTWATCH
By Theresa Rebeck, produced by Jade King Carroll
Theresa Rebeck’s audio play NIGHTWATCH is an imitative true-crime podcast examining the “facts” around a peculiar incident. A teenage girl witnesses a violent attack in the middle of the street. No one else seemed to see it, and the police failed to investigate. If a murder happens and only one person sees it - and that person is a teenage girl - is it real? But what if a true crime is a fake crime? What is truth and what is fake news in the world we live in? Intrepid public radio reporter Martina Diaz guides us through a maze of interviews with friends and skeptics on NIGHTWATCH.
