The Iron Anthology
The Iron Anthology
Via Brooklyn
What does it mean to have an iron will against society’s status quo? This October 2022, three playwrights dive into this very question in The Iron Anthology. Via Brooklyn Theatre Co. presents an audio drama series of three stories that navigate the horrors of brash industrialization, unchecked consumerism, and intergenerational trauma. The protagonists rage against the monsters of society. But is society itself too strong to break? Check out viabrooklyn.org for more information!

Teenagers Lizzy and Monica are the best of friends, even though they could not come from more different backgrounds. There’s nothing they enjoy more than gossiping about school, hanging out at parties, and doing a little shopping together. But when an ordinary trip to the mall opens up a whole new world to the pair, they must decide how far their friendship is willing to go and what true sacrifice looks like.

Ore
It’s the 1820’s and three prospectors are searching for iron ore deep in the rural North Eastern United States in the hopes of finally finding their fortune. However, when a malevolent presence warns that they are not welcome amongst the rural landscape, Abraham, Noah, and Matthew question their commitment to the quest and what prospecting means not only for their future, but their very lives themselves.
