Overview
David Rimmer, a Pulitzer Prize finalist author for Album, originally wrote New York to raise funds for volunteer psychiatrists dedicated to helping the overwhelming number of patients psychologically affected by 9/11.
Depicting the reactions of 15 individuals to the events of that day, New York features a wide array of sympathetic characters, all speaking to a central psychiatrist. The play has been performed to great acclaim at theatres, schools and colleges around the world, including the International School in Lausanne, Switzerland and at venues ranging from North America to Australia.
