Every week we will be sharing new plays by our Heal the Divide playwrights. This week’s play is The Weather Today, by David Hilder, a playwright from NYC, NY.
In this piece — which, yes, I wrote while in London (today) — I wanted to step back from everything and look at conversation, that lost art I so often miss in political discourse. I started out thinking about the weather and ended up with some sort of neo-Socratic dialogue, which wasn’t my aim, but that’s the great thing about writing: Being surprised.
