                A stark comedy about a poor woman and two men 
                selling roses in an abandoned park while the final war of mankind 
                rages in the city around them. The past, the present and the future 
                collide in the symphonic cacophony of war, breakingdown the barriers 
                of primal need, revealing the main and intangible point of this 
                life we lead.

               CRUX was first presented as a staged reading 
                as part of Glasslight Theatre Company's Autumn Writes reading 
                series. It had a subsequent reading for Horse Trade Theater Group's 
                  LAB series. 
                Much of the material for the play was formed while working with 
                the Glasslight Theatre Company's New York writers group.  
              Without this writer's group, the support of Glasslight, 
                and the hours spent with Ms. deBessonet this play would not be 
                the play that it is today. I am very thankful and indebted to 
                all those involved. This play has definitely made for some interesting 
                conversations. - Joseph Langham  |
