Synopsis: | Now in its tenth year, TheDrillingCompaNY is well known for its collections of new plays around common themes. The theme this year is FREEDOM. "We chose it because of all of the attention our FREE market economy has gotten lately and because we're still fighting wars for the same cause," says artistic director Hamilton Clancy. "Franklin Roosevelt outlined four freedoms America was responsible for defending-that was the kick-off point for playwrights." With grants from the New York State Council on the Arts and Lower Manhattan Cultural Council, TheDrillingCompaNY commissions writers to write around the chosen theme. The directors of this year's plays are: Hamilton Clancy, Robert A. Wilson, Tom Demenkoff, Jude Domski, David Marantz, Richard Mover, and Rebecca Hengstenberg. | |||||

Synopsis: | Reservoir is a new play by Eric Henry Sanders that reveals how the tragedy of a distant war seethes within us. Buchner's Woyzeck is re-imagined as the unsettling homecoming of a Mideastern War veteran--a lowly truck mechanic with PTSD. Sanders peers into the souls of the soldier, his Staff Sergeant, his military psychiatrist (a woman), his closest buddy from overseas who is now serving with him stateside, and his girlfriend who is mother of his infant son. The plain-spoken, powerful drama hits with the force of a mass outcry in our war-weary age. Private Frank Hasek, a young veteran of a foreign war, returns home to await his redeployment. While suffering from the strains of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, he struggles to keep his job as an Army mechanic in order to support Marisa, the mother of his newborn son. He has maintained the vehicles that American troops have driven through occupied cities, often in a state of fright and at peril to civilians in their path. Unsettling visions of what he has seen and a series of unfortunate events threaten to upend his career and derail his relationship with Marisa. Although Hasek seeks help from an overworked psychiatrist at VA hospital, his behavior becomes increasingly erratic and threatens to turn violent when he discovers that Marisa is having an affair with his Staff Sergeant. | |||||
