New Plays in Production
Welcome to a new section of TCG’s website, featuring profiles of new plays with world premieres scheduled at TCG theatres. We hope these profiles will provide insight into each theatre’s reasons for developing and/or producing a particular new script, along with details on when the shows are running in case you’d like to make a special trip to attend one. The plays listed below are funded by the Edgerton Foundation’s New American Play Awards. Since 2006, this funding program has provided over twenty TCG member theatres with financial resources to increase rehearsal time with the full production team onsite at the theatre. More recipients will be added soon.
