Best New Play 2019 Olivier Awards
Matthew Lopez's 'The Inheritance' premiered in two parts at the Young Vic Theatre, London, in March 2018 and went on to Noël Coward Theatre in 2019. This play has won the 2019 AMERICAN AIRLINES BEST NEW PLAY at the Olivier Awards, this April. Checkout this play for monologues or duologues for showcase!
"You have to wonder why there isn't a word in the English language for the fireworks that go off in your brain when you finally kiss someone you've wanted for years. Or for the intimacy and tenderness you feel as you hold the hand of a suffering friend. A generation after the height of the AIDS crisis, what is it like to be a young gay man in New York? How many words are there now for the different kinds of pain, the different kinds of love?"
