PLAY SUMMARY:                          

 

“Elevator” is a character study of six lives trapped in a World Trade Center elevator on the day of 9/11.  It is driven by the facts of the elevator system and what happened to the system on that day.  The play begins a few minutes before the first plane hits the first tower, and runs in real time for the one-hundred and two minutes until the tower collapses.  This play explores layers of humanity in times of crisis as the play moves forward--the victim’s situation continually disintegrating--until finally the improbable understanding that their very existence is in jeopardy.

 

This play, ultimately, examines the best and worse of our humanity.
