Chinese Friends by Jon Robin Baitz (May 2004) Peter Strauss - Playwrights Horizons
The play is set in the year 2030, on a New England island compound inhabited by Arthur Brice (Peter Strauss), a former professor and politico living in comfortable, self-imposed exile from the decaying America that lies across the water. Washing up on his shores one day is his estranged college-dropout son Ajax (Tyler Francavilla), accompanied by two friends who share his free-thinking, free-loving ways. They're a new breed: hippie nihilists. It's not long before the generation gap is sparking feisty debates about the state of the country that clue us in to both Brice's past and Baitz's vision of America's immediate future. Back in '08, Brice was a policy adviser to an administration that tried but failed to reverse the "arrogant policies" of prior presidents "that have caused so much human suffering." Their failure left the "dynasty of cowboys and corporate criminals" in charge, and the world is now in ruins: "The United Nations has collapsed, Social Security is gone, people are fighting wars over clean water ... ."
