📱WRITE CLUB (14/27)📱

Two young women living in Washington, D.C. are horrified to discover that AI-generated explicit content depicting their likenesses is being circulated online. As they rush to discover who is responsible for creating and sharing these deepfakes and why, they contend with the fact that virtually no laws exist to hold the perpetrator responsible.

Imposed is a three-hander socio-political drama grappling with a world fraught with megalomaniacs, misogyny, and the unbridled mutations of social media outpacing our ability to grasp hold of the reins.

🗓 14th - 16th January
🎟 From £10 on our website

We are beyond stoked to be bringing the UK premiere of IMPOSED to @thehopetheatre January 14-16, 2026!

IMPOSED is a socio-political one-act drama written by the immensely talented @hattbf. Two young women living in Washington, D.C. are horrified to discover that AI-generated explicit content depicting their likenesses is being circulated online. As they rush to discover who is responsible for creating and sharing these deepfakes and why, they contend with the fact that virtually no laws exist to hold the perpetrator responsible.

Getting to work with the best team ever, led by the inimitable @hannaheidinow, is just the cherry on top. Come see us in Jan! Link in bio🎟️✨

A day spent doing our favorite thing together - and celebrating a lifetime of adventures to come! (With a little blessing from nature, too ⛈️)

We gave this day so much meaning, love and fun and, for that, we owe a special thanks to:

💍 @buenaplataok for bringing to life a dream engagement ring, crafted from family heirlooms.

🎶 @sonsoftheeast for always releasing new music exactly at the most special moments of our journey as a couple. See you on October 8 in DC!

Thrilled to share an excerpt of my play @americanprogress in partnership with @theaterandpolicysalon. It led to a really fascinating discussion about the role of content moderation on social media platforms. And kudos to @cut2jordan @noahcisrael for acting as well as @juliaklavans for directing and Gibson Gillet-Behrens for his fantastic sound design.

This was a teaser for a film show performance later this year. More to come…..

Join us @americanprogress on 6.24 for a semi off book reading of a play excerpt from my new play, Drink In Moderation!

RSVP at this link here:
https://rsvp2.americanprogress.org/drinkinmoderation

“DRINK IN MODERATION” tells the story of Leo, a recent college graduate who accepts a job as a remote social media content moderator for a major tech company. At first he thrives in the job, but as he continues to review the content, the graphic and unrelenting nature of the material begins to affect his state of mind.

The play will be followed by a moderated conversation.

Come join us @framebridge @union market on Saturday for street fest. They’ll be some incredible artists from @imagineearthcollective sharing their work. And the wonderful @by.alexandrahehlen even put some prints together for quotes from my upcoming novel 😃

A late post, but thrilled to present my play, “Imposed” last week @americanprogress where we had a full house and a great conversation afterwards about the tools and accountability — or lack thereof — related to deepfakes online. Huge shout out to the director, Michael Feldman, actors @walkersnow @juliaklavans @jenarousity, Becca Branum for her expertise, and Megan Shahin for moderating!

Not often you get to see a 70 million year old log, with knots and lines shaped when the dinosaurs were still roaming the earth. It makes a human lifespan feel like a whip in the wind. And a rainbow sunset in the desert to top off the day made for a pretty good trip to the Bisti Badlands. Hopefully I get to see it again before this whip in the wind ceases….
