"This is not a Churchill" is a response to Caryl Churchill's 1999 experimental short play "This is a Chair" in which heavy topical news bulletins are each followed by a scene that has nothing to do with the news announcement. 5 Chicago playwrights followed Churchill's lead and produced 4 original plays that riff on the play's titular disconnections and the troubling, hilarious, and inexplicable nature of our co-existences.
