In many ways, Conner seems like an ordinary boy growing up in the 1960's. But since the age of four, he and his brother have been abducted by aliens multiple times. Conner's gift of seeing beings from the spirit world sometimes gives him access to protection and comfort, but at other times, his ability adds to the horror of being hunted by extraterrestrials. As he matures, Conner must learn which alien races he can trust, what they want with our planet, and how their agendas tie in with Biblical prophecy. While dealing with frequent moves and trouble at home, Conner will try to survive unrelenting attention from an alien race who has decided his genome may hold the key to saving their people. This story creates a thrilling fictional narrative out of copious research on alien abduction conducted by the authors, including numerous firsthand accounts never made available to a general audience. "Too intense for kids, this fascinating story blends spirituality and alien encounters in a way I have never seen before." -Brandon Mull, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Fablehaven and Five Kingdoms

"The R S C and the Moscow Art Theatre have given us one of the most delightful collaborations of two minds, if not since Beaumont and Fletcher, then since Brenton and Hare were hard at the likes of BRASSNECK and PRAVDA.... A two-hour glasnost extravaganza... Extremely funny."Time Out (London) "MISHA'S PARTY is set in Moscow during the 1991 coup. The play, though isn't political; it simply shows a family of Russians gathering in a hotel restaurant to celebrate the 60th birthday of a man with an untidy past... The spirit of Chekhov is very much alive in the regrets, sadnesses and farcical nature of this interesting new play."The Daily Telegraph "Top notch."Sunday Express "A richly Chekhovian piece about exile and homecoming, and about regrouping of a dysfunctional family in a tottering regime."International Herald Tribune "In his deft, unostentatious way Nelson was written a robust, healing comedy whose subjects include the pull of the past, the power of unreason and the problems of adjusting to an alien culture."The London Times "A forceful...comedy of manners."Evening Standard "Touching and novel, the play brims with the milk of human folly and a sense of the primacy of private feeling over public events. This is a play for thought as well as amusement."New York Post "MISHA'S PARTY is a cause for celebration."Plays and Players

"The First Great Original Play of Quarantine." -- New Yorker These three plays were written and performed over the memorable summer of 2020. Forced into isolation as the pandemic raged and protests against racism spread after the murder of George Floyd, the Apple Family of Rhinebeck, New York, gather over Zoom to share meals and weather the storms. Together, virtually, they swap jokes, stories and their adventures with grocery shopping and dating; they reveal their depression and fears, they mourn lost friends and even watch a dance performance, as the world outside sputters out of control, amidst anger, illness, and a coming election. With an introduction and afterword by the author.

Damaged Language contains four radio plays by Richard Nelson:LANGUAGES SPOKEN HERE Giles Cooper Award winner "a morally ambiguous comedy…an American in London thinks he's translating a novel by a penniless Polish emigre, only to find, after befriending and patronizing him, that the Pole has ditched his benefactor for another hack… True and funny as well." Paul Ferris, The Observer "A neat, beautifully written, serious comedy about translation, exile and betrayal-one of the very best on Radio 3 last year." Nigel Andrews, The Listener "A rare sort of treat…a very funny play, delicate in its touches, but sharp as a needle." Gillian Reynolds, The Daily TelegraphEATING WORDS Giles Cooper Award winner "Totally enthralling… Richard Nelson is God's gift (or at least America's) to English radio drama." Nigel Andrews, The Listener "A thoroughly absorbing account of two writers on a drunken tour of London." Plays and Players ADVICE TO EASTERN EUROPE "A masterly short play-a post-Cold War romance that is witty [and] technically bold-examines how one woman's Utopia may be another person's capitalist nightmare." Quentin Curtis, The Independent on SundayTHE AMERICAN WIFE "A reminder that Nelson is the sharpest observer around of the gulf separating Britain and America." Michael Billington, The Guardian

The first describes Greek and Persian troop types, and the typical army compositions, and then deals with the Great Persian Wars in some detail. The second describes the Peloponnesian War within Greece.

Three Plays of Adolescence: Goodnight Children Everywhere; Franny's Way; Madame MelvilleGoodnight Children EverywhereOlivier Award for Best Play, 2000'Exile - both literal and emotional - has been a haunting preoccupation for this dramatist. And with all themes of displacement and loss comes the yearning for a sense of place, for those attachments we cannot always rationalize but know as home. In Goodnight Children Everywhere, the safe harbor of home has been dynamited by war... A disturbing and lovely domestic drama about the loss of childhood.'New York ObserverFranny's Way'Boundaries warp and melt in the dense urban heat that pervades Franny's Way, Nelson's sensitively drawn portrait of love in the age of J.D.Salinger. The lines between childhood and adulthood blur disorientatingly for the three generations of characters gathered in a cramped apartment in Greenwich Village at the height of the summer in the 1950's... Nelson continues to give compassionate and insightful life to such erotic waywardness.'New York Times'It moves with the breathless haste of a horny teen on prom night.'Time Out New YorkMadame Melville'A memory play of wonderful delicacy, tenderness and humour... I left the theatre elated at having discovered such a terrific new play. An exquisite reminder of lost love, innocence and youth.' Daily Telegraph'An elegant, tender, beguiling play.'
