"[Carapace is] deftly drawn...[a] sharp, often incredibly funny drama..." —Felicia Feaster, ArtsCriticATL.com

Winner! 2010 Kendeda Graduate Playwriting Competition!

Jeff is a man on a mission to do right by his daughter on her 23^rd birthday. But first, he has to do a few things. Figure out where his daughter lives, for starters. Then, find an open pet store. Then, navigate his Oldsmobile past the wrecked 35W Bridge. And probably, yes, stop for a drink. Just one. This time.

A portrait of a flawed man on a collision course with fate one cold Minneapolis winter night, Carapace is the latest winner of the Kendeda Graduate Playwriting Competition, identifying the best new American playwrights and bringing their work to Atlanta.
