About the plays: Fourteen Hundred And Sixty Sketches Of Your Left Hand- When Paul gets invited to New Mexico for the summer for an artist’s retreat with his gay bromantic college buddy Alonso, he discovers that Alonso’s sister Blanca is tasking Paul with keeping Alonso on his medication for temporal lobe epilepsy, which he doesn’t want to take since he identifies with Van Gogh, who had the same condition. Paul and Blanca begin a clandestine affair as he increasingly offers teases of his body to Alonso as incentive to take his meds. All comes to a head when Blanca’s boyfriend Gabriel returns unexpectedly from the army. Tormented painters, sexual obsession, and crossed boundaries combine for a scorching new play.
