A Triptych Play
By Reina Hardy.
Directed by Terrence Mayfield.
Sunny Days is a triptych play that follows a fictionalized version of Sesame Street called ABC City through three points in time. The first act takes place in Kosovo in 2004, where two ABC City representatives meet with Serbian and Albanian filmmakers to create a show together, despite centuries of resentment and the sound of gunfire outside the window. The second act brings us to Trump-era Texas, where ABC City visits the Hutto Immigrant Detention Center. Finally, the third act takes us a few miles inland from what was once Philadelphia, now underwater, where a young girl searches for the mythical ABC City in the post climate apocalypse.
