"What Theft of Imagination? All I see on display in David Negrin's new play... is a ton of imagination."
"Theft of Imagination is quite possibly the perfect show to see during the Broadway strike." - Aaron Riccio, New Theater Corps
"It's easy to see that Negrin has talent... He draws characters that live and breathe with the spirit of individuality."
"...ambitious project..." - Katharine Rolnick, Curtain Rising Magazine
"An exciting play, filled with unpredictable turns of events, and equally brimming with surprising notions that succeed in challenging our assumptions about the issues at its heart."
"Negrin doesn't shy away from making some breathtakingly radical proposals in this play"
"There are quite a few people in positions of authority who ought to see this play." - Martin Denton, NYTheatre.com
Synopsis:
Two nations will go to war in 13 days.
Weapons in hand, two cultures of dueling faiths plan to settle their hundred year blood feud once and for all. But in the eleventh hour, seekers of peace unearth an obscure legal provision that provides a unique solution to settle their epic dispute:
A peace summit can be convened with two all powerful peace ambassadors, a pair of young boys. If these young boys, one from each nation, with innocent and unjaded hearts, settle the dispute before the deadline, their agreement will have the full force of both nations laws…
And there will be peace.
Can two boys accomplish in thirteen days what diplomats, politicians, and holy men haven’t been able to in one hundred years?
