 It’s time to decolonize your play reading list! Every month, TDM’s BIPOC Play Discussion Group meets to discuss plays by Black, Indigenous, and/or People of Color playwrights, whose works are all too often left off of the syllabi at institutions of higher education. The February play will be *SYZYGY, or the ceasing of the sun* by juliany taveras.

 **About *SYZYGY, or the ceasing of the sun*:**

 *on the cusp of the 22nd century, in a city (or whatever it is that is left), a star-crossed, makeshift family of five is born. a meditation on how love &amp; chaos behave when it feels like the world is falling apart, SYZYGY is both a microscope on a handful of humans &amp; a telescope on the world they struggle to survive in &amp; care for. climate &amp; cosmos; past &amp; present; bodies &amp; burdens; life &amp; legacy—what does it mean for us if, in fact, the world has always been ending? how do we love? how do we fight?*

 Copies of the script are available on the New Play Exchange website. [HOLLIS provides free access to the New Play Exchange script database with your HarvardKey.](http://id.lib.harvard.edu/alma/99154312716403941/catalog)
