This is Serious: The Schoolhouse Theater’s Pandemic Players continue with an (impromptu) staged reading of This is Serious by Scarsdale playwright Joan Ross Sorkin. This two-part play, is set one year ago in New Rochelle, the first east coast epicenter in the age of COVID.

Part I (“Between A Rock and A Hard Place”) begins on March 11, 2020 when Maggie and Richard Granville are self-quarantined, but their plans are upended when their freshman college son Petey arrives home with an unexpected guest.

Part II (“Double Whammy”) continues on May 27, two days after George Floyd is murdered. The family is still in lockdown, and although they support racial justice, the ultimate test comes when Petey plans to sneak out to attend a Black Lives Matter protest in Brooklyn.
