In Anne Washburn's disquieting new drama, a group of old friends -- most of whom have widely lost touch -- are reunited for the funeral of one their own. Washburn's expertise in blurring the lines between the real and surreal compounds the unease as the friends scour their memories of the past and cope with stark reminders of their own mortality.

Reviews for Antlia Pneumatica

'A writer of questing imagination and convention-bending technique' * New York Times * 'Washburn has established herself as one of the most formally innovative playwrights working today' * Guardian * 'Washburn is not your ordinary playwright… [her] witty, surprising language makes you laugh in self-recognition, then gasp at a turn into poetic intensity. I think everyone should see Anne Washburn's plays' * Time Out New York * 'A realistic, disarming ghost tale, invigorated with ruminations about time and space' * Associated Press *
