My wife, Margaret O’Donnell, is an immigration attorney here in Seattle, but she has been writing plays for the last few years, and is in transition toward that time when most of her focus will be writing.
Her latest production is called The Detention Lottery, and has just achieved national recognition through an article by Kate Danley in the May / June 2019 edition of The Dramatist – the official journal of the Dramatists Guild of America. The script and all the production materials are freely available for any non-commercial use through a Creative Commons license. You can find this and more information about the play at: http://globallawadvocates.com/immigration-in-the-arts/the-detention-lottery-2/. Margaret hopes that schools, churches, community groups, and government offices will sponsor productions of the play nationally, to open up for the US public what happens in immigration court. She is now working on a middle school and high school curriculum featuring the themes in the play.
