Winner 2010 Obie Award, Best New American Play
THE ALIENS
By Annie Baker
Part of the Shirley, VT Plays Festival

In the town of Shirley, Vt., two 30-something dropouts hang out by the dumpster behind the coffee shop where they meditate on music, philosophy, shrooms, and Bukowski. When a teenage employee asks them to relocate, these disillusioned young men find the disciple they’ve been waiting for. A beat-tinged, psychotropic journey, Annie Baker’s THE ALIENS is a funny and heartening look at friendship, ritual, and small town New England. Company One is proud to join the Huntington Theatre Company and SpeakEasy Stage Company as part of the Shirley, VT. Plays Festival, presenting the winner of the 2010 Obie Award for Best American Play.
