Story for SawBones and The Diamond Eater - Two One-Act Plays
TWO NEW ONE-ACT PLAYS
based on little-known true events in world history
--SAWBONES and THE DIAMOND EATER--
by Broadway costume designer and new playwright CARRIE ROBBINS
SAWBONES is set in a Civil War Field Hospital in Virginia in 1862 – where medicine is sparse and need is great – and depicts what ensues when a freeman of color brings in a teenage Rebel requiring immediate attention for his shattered leg.
THE DIAMOND EATER is based on a true story, as told to RD Robbins. The play is set in a German camp in 1945 where a senior squad leader undertakes an experiment: he enlists a Jewish surgeon to transplant a gypsy's kidney into a Jew to determine if the Jew will survive.
Together, the plays consider the large scale and individual human cost of war.
