  A new play from the highly acclaimed writer of Four and Other People Published to coincide with the Soho Theatre's production on 2 April 2001, The Coming World moves from Shinn's usual Manhattan environment to the coast of New England, where Dora is persuaded, against her better judgement, to help her ex, Ed, in a desperate attempt to escape from spiralling debt.
