Introducing Cuarta, a twenty-something Hispanic woman. Cuarta means "the fourth daughter." Cuarta's three older sisters all have flower names. Yolanda which means violet. Orquidea which means orchid. Flor De Oro which means goldenrod. So something bad must have happened, right? Uh, did I forget to mention that the mother died giving birth to Cuarta? That's why there were no flowers for Cuarta. Just a number for a name for a bad luck girl. Cuarta goes to America and marries Atilano. Atilano is Spanish for Atilla the Hun. Cuarta believes in luck. Both kinds of luck. The good and the bad. And throughout the play, there are signs and symbols and personifications of its hold over her. There's the psychic. And the deck of cards. And the lucky numbers and the feng shui. All of which culminate in Cuarta and Atilano's going for all the marbles on a single spin of a roulette wheel. | |||||

Notes: | This play had a reading at the South Coast Repertory Practicum in 2006. It was inspired by the events of Nine-Eleven. | |||||
Synopsis: | Mohammed's Moon is about nine-eleven, the title inspired by the moon having been in waning crescent phase the morning of the attack. It's a 61 page, fast-paced piece, with eight actors taking on 29 roles and a landscape littered with witches, a street preacher, prophecies, omens, burning Bibles & Qur'ans & books on Dianetics. There's a commuter train and an airplane on collision course. And a man convinced Mia Farrow is sending him telepathic messages of love. At rise, it's early morning nine-eleven, as Mohammed Atta boards a plane for the last time, while 300 miles to the south, a New Jersey Transit commuter train sets out from Gladstone station for Summit, NJ, with connections to the World Trade Center. The passengers we meet seem to be on weirdly destructive personal missions. Mister Atta encounters four tempters, among them Santa Claus and Hitler. Santa shows him nude pictures of a martyr's brides. Hitler declaims on the "truth of lobsters." And all the while shining down, the moon spawns its own dark lunacy. | |||||

She's been sacked from her job. Hafez, a friend, an Arab man from work, will soon stop by to comfort her and try to cheer her up. And when he enters the apartment, all the submerged poisons in their relationship will bubble to the surface, giving us a foretaste of things to come. Of course, Erica, the American, represents the USA. Molly represents the UK. Hafez represents the Arab world. This play contains nudity and violence and cruelty to animals. | |||||
