Philip Stokes Playwright

From acclaimed playwright Philip Stokes, and starring the multi-award-winning actor Jack Stokes, comes a razor-edge new play… THIS IS NOT AMERICA.

When a dead body is discovered in a house in Brooklyn, three identical brothers are dragged away and questioned. What happens next is only the beginning of their nightmare, as a compelling story woven with secrets and lies unfolds. 

From the creators of the multi-award-winning hit plays Jesus Jane Mother and Me, Shellshocked, and LASH comes a powerful, urgent new thriller that exposes the dark side of the ‘American Dream’ and what it means in 2026.
