Decade is a 2011 play by John Logan, Lynn Nottage, and eighteen other writers commemorating the tenth anniversary of the September 11 attacks. The play is a compilation of twenty individual, shorter plays that combine to form the story's overarching narrative. [1] Its structure is drawn from the work of the choreographer Pina Bausch[ citation needed] and it involves a cast of 12.
The play was commissioned by director Rupert Goold for his company, Headlong. [2] It premièred in St Katharine Docks (the site of London's World Trade Centre) and was performed from 1 September to 15 October 2011, in a production starring Lia Williams and directed by Goold. [3] The production received praise for its treatment of the subject material and Goold's direction. [2] [4]
