Gruesome Playground Injuries- A Play by Rajiv Joseph

"Gruesome Playground Injuries" is a fast-paced intense and darkly comic play by Rajiv Joseph. It tells the story of Kayleen and Doug two friends whose lives are intertwined through a series of injuries that bring them together. Spanning ages 8 to 38 the play follows their relationship as they navigate life's challenges sometimes leaning on each other too much occasionally causing harm and often struggling to ask for help. Its non-chronological structure allows the audience to piece together their attraction while exploring themes of lost love pain regret and how injuries can map a lifetime. Joseph highlights the complexity and messiness of life reminding us that it becomes a bit easier with someone by our side.
