OD: A New Play by Hannah Bisewski
Posters for OD: A New Play by Hannah Bisewski, Columbia University School of the Arts (Department of Theatre), 2014 The Premiere of Od is MFA Candidate Hannah Bisewski’s first very FULL-LENGTH production at Columbia University, directed by Peter Petkovsek and produced by Shiva Kalaiselvan. Inspired by Mikhail Bulgakov's Master and Margarita and the true story of the Inman twins, called by Rolling Stone's Sabrina Rubin Erdely 'the poorest rich kids in the world', Od is a fascinating tale combining universal questions about free will with the very real issues of race and family. Caralee and Braxton Crandall, twins often left locked up in their room by their abusive drug-addict father, become the subject of a wager between the Devil himself, and a lawyer currently residing in hell. The question is, does free wil exist? The twins are given a special power, 'Od', with which they can take their lives into their own hands. But will they?
