About the Playwright:

Kilpatrick is a Native American writer (Cherokee) who lives in Belgium with his wife and their three dogs. He received his Ph.d. in Anthropology (UCLA) and was a Professor of American Indian Studies at San Diego State University until his retirement.


He currently serves as adjunct faculty in Depth Psychology at the Pacifica Graduate Institute, Santa Barbara, CA. Among his many academic publications is: The Night Has a Naked Soul: Witchcraft and Sorcery among the Western Cherokee (Syracuse University Press 1997).


Synopsis:

Xenophobia and Racism reign as DR. SOLTANI, a middle-eastern psychiatrist, and HENRIETTA COCKBURN, a belligerent London Police officer, engage in a complex game of cat and mouse over the mysterious contents of an orphaned suitcase found at Heathrow Airport.


There will be a moderated critique session immediately following this reading where you can offer direct feedback to the playwright!
