The experience of The Car Plays is this: You and your companion are escorted by "car hops" into the parking lot and to your row of five parked cars. You then take your seats inside one of the parked cars and you might notice two other people in the car with you. Suddenly, your car door closes and the drama, or comedy, unfolds in front of you. Ten minutes later the doors open, you are ushered into a new car, and a new play begins. In the course of just one hour, five evocative stories are revealed. These are The Car Plays, a Los Angeles phenomenon that has become a worldwide sensation. Contained in these pages are nine Car Plays written by one of the dozens of participating playwrights.
