On September 27, 2018, the Senate Judiciary Committee held hearings concerning Dr. Christine Blasey Ford's allegations that then-Supreme Court Justice nominee Judge Brett Kavanaugh had sexually assaulted her in the mid-1980s.

Advice and Consent is a play formed of interviews, found text, and transcripts, re-arranged, selected, and edited for poetic and provocative effect.

The drama is designed as a thought experiment about power, pathos, tragedy, politics, gender, race, and truth.

Accompanied by a score written by law professor and violinist Kathleen Kim, it may be either read or performed.
