What begins as a monologue about a florist unravels into an expansive sci-fi fantasia...

:/secondplace is a new play by Kaye Hurley, directed by Kedian Keohan, that is premiering at the 2026 Exponential Festival this January. This is our first major public collaboration on a new work since their 2021 piece BLUSH, in the Soho Rep Writer Director Lab.

We’re raising 4,000 dollars to cover the final stretch of production costs. We’ve already raised half of our total goal, and this last 4,000 dollars is what stands between us and a fully resourced show.

What your support actually does: two thirds of every donation goes directly into an artist’s pocket. That means your contribution pays the people who are performing, designing, animating, composing, producing, and building this piece from the ground up. 




We need to raise $4000 by December 31st to pay the incredible artists on this team and make this production possible. And help us spread the word by sharing this campaign! Tag Kaye on IG @a_femme_url!
