THE BLACK BAG HEXALOGY
Six plays. Five Cities. Four presidents. Three assassinations. Two surveillance agencies. One nation unraveling.
What is the Hexalogy?
The Black Bag Hexalogy is a series of six standalone plays united by shared themes of surveillance, secrecy, and the unraveling of American power. While each volume can be experienced on its own, together they form a panoramic descent into the backrooms, bedrooms, and bugged boardrooms of 20th-century American history.
Volumes I–IV (Sunny Afternoon, King Dick, ...meantime at HoJo’s and Black Bag Job) have been written and staged.
Volumes V & VI (The Ambassador, and Hotel Del Charro) are written and currently in development for future production.
The Ambassador
Election night, 1968. Hope floods the Ambassador Hotel. Cameras flash. Glasses clink. A nation leans forward.
In the service hallways and kitchen corridors, another operation is underway.
Timing is everything.
So is silence.
A volatile, precision-built drama about access, control, and the machinery that turns a moment into a killing.
Hotel Del Charro
Labor Day weekend, 1954. A luxury La Jolla hideaway becomes the stage for backroom deals and front-page betrayals. Oil barons, FBI brass, and Hollywood legends mingle over cocktails and conspiracy.
Behind the smiles? Paranoia, power games, and the slow-boiling death of the American soul.
