Content Warning: Violence
"I don't want you hunting anyone. What if you become the prey?"
On a night walk in Brooklyn, pregnant Ayanna and her husband Ezra witness a sudden, violent attack. But when they call the police, doubts arise. Did they get a good look at the attacker's face? What color was his sweatshirt? And — why do their memories differ so drastically?
Originally commissioned as part of New Black Fest's "Facing Our Truth: Ten-Minute Plays on Trayvon, Race and Privilege," NIGHT VISION launches Playing on Air's yearlong celebration of MacArthur 'Genius Grant' winner Dominique Morisseau (The Detroit Projects, Pipeline, Ain't Too Proud—The Life and Times of the Temptations). Directed by Stori Ayers (Chautauqua Theater Company, "The Last O.G."), NIGHT VISION stars OBIE winner April Matthis (Toni Stone, Elevator Repair Service, PoA's Hate Baby) and Eden Marryshow ("Jessica Jones," Broadway's Ink) and features music by guest composer Jimmy Keys.
