The tenth winner of the Yale Drama Series centers on a young mother dealing with life’s many trials Marking the tenth anniversary of the Yale Drama Series for emerging playwrights, Emily Schwend’s powerful work centers on Amber, a young woman struggling to raise a family in East Texas. Amber is juggling two nearly full-time jobs and three kids. Her on-again, off-again husband Chris is eternally optimistic and charming as hell, but rarely employed. The house is falling apart and Amber has an eight-year-old’s birthday party to plan. Selected from more than 1,600 entries, Schwend’s newest play—produced by the Amoralists Theatre Company at Rattlestick Playwrights Theatre in 2016—vividly captures the economic hardships and relationship difficulties faced by so many Americans today. “Utility is a remarkable play: beautifully written and effortlessly powerful,” said contest judge Nicholas Wright. “At every moment the happiness of human lives is put at risk: is there any greater dramatic theme?”
Time travel novels are always fairly clear about one point, which is this: the fabric of space-time is not a thing to be trifled with. People can't change what's supposed to happen in history. When people attempt to change history, that's always when all hell breaks loose. Indeed, if people don't take care to protect the sanctity of the timeline, the whole universe could collapse into nothingness.That's one theory, anyway. But it's not the premise of Time Tourists, a book in the Douglas Adams tradition of humourous science fiction and in the Harry Turtledove tradition of plausible alternative history. This book is based on a different premise. What would happen if people could go back in time and mess with everything ' with no consequences?
