Intimate Surveillance by Catherine Stewart and directed by Marie Cisco When disgraced entrepreneur Mina James sits down with storied journalist David Mendez, a seemingly innocent interview on Mina’s new invention quickly unravels out of her control with David’s relentless and searing questions. Winner of the 2024 Neukom Literary Arts Award for Playwriting, Catherine Stewart’s taut 90-minute drama unfolds in real-time over one charged conversation, pushing Mina–and all of us–to grapple with the reality and consequences of allowing technology to surveille some of our most intimate aspects of life.
