Lost and Found by Angelica Gorga
LOST AND FOUND is a One-Act play that takes place in a laundromat in Brooklyn, New York during the blackout of 2003. With no electricity coming back anytime soon, strangers LOST and FOUND stick together during this time of uncertainty in a city that has just come off an attack two years prior. Passing the time through drinking, games, and folding laundry, both ultimately form a connection and reveal their own secrets and pasts, one they have more in common than they think. This play represents connection, the nonlinear timeline of healing, and how grief affects our day to day lives.

As a playwright, much of my work explores complex social issues for which there are no easy solutions. Traveling in developing countries, war-ravaged nations as well as working in emergency medicine has supplied me with several lifetimes of theatrical material for my plays. - J. Thalia Cunningham
