It Just Stopped
A savage comedy of manners,
It Just Stopped explores our relationship to art, globalisation, death, technology, America, Campari, cardboard boxes and slavery. Sewell’s play is funny and shocking in turn. It holds the mirror up to the things we value today and asks the questions: what will we value the day the world just stops, and what would we be willing to trade for our own survival?

Myth, Propaganda and Disaster in Nazi Germany and Contemporary America
Written with searing passion and dazzling momentum,
Myth, Propaganda and Disaster in Nazi Germany and Contemporary America
reverberates with the aftershocks of September 11. With compelling
drive and theatrical daring, we are swept from cocktails at the
Guggenheim to the hungry vacuum of Ground Zero. Stephen Sewell demands
answers to some of the most urgent questions of our times. Where is the
line between patriotism and nationalism? What happens when the Land of
the Free makes such uncompromising statements as: ‘You’re either with
us or against us’?
