The Watchers
Read Full Script | PDF
 The Watchers was awarded to The Broadway Producer List as one of the Top 10 unproduced plays in NYC (originally titled Modern Prophet).
A modern Biblical horror play, The Watchers is a twin sister and brother. The prophet Elijah. An abandoned Angel. And the sign of God’s return to earth. The Watchers explores the definition of horror, and asks: would we even want that God to return? Do we have that choice? |
