New York City-based theater collective SOCIETY announced today that they will stage two new plays in repertory at New Ohio Theatre this June. Performances begin June 8th and are set to continue through June 25th.
Theatre for a New Audience opened their 2021-2022 season with the New York premiere of Will Eno's Gnit (October 30 - November 21, 2021), a reimagining of Peer Gynt directed by Eno's frequent collaborator Oliver Butler that had four preview performances at the Polonsky Shakespeare Center before being shuttered due to the pandemic.
Performer and writer Christy Escobar (Dietland) is one of 3,000 New York City-based artists to receive $5,000 through the City Artist Corps Grants program, presented by The New York Foundation for the Arts (NYFA) and the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs (DCLA), with support from the Mayor's Office of Media and Entertainment (MOME) as well as Queens Theatre.
TFANA will reopen its doors for the 2021-2022 season with the New York premiere of Will Eno’s Gnit, his modern version of Henrik Ibsen’s sprawling, satirical, 19th century five-act play in verse, Peer Gynt, as a quick-paced contemporary tragicomedy.

When you combine Bettis' exceptionally well-written and insightful script with some of the most powerful acting you're likely to see on a DC stage this season, and some excellent direction by Jose Zayas, you have a must-see theatrical production.
It was only a matter of time before a Hilary Bettis play received a full production in DC. Her work has brought her to Orlando Shakes PlayFest, Bay Area Playwrights Festival, O'Neill National Playwrights Conference, New York Theatre Workshop, Cape Cod Theatre Project and La Jolla Playhouse, among many, many others. She is one of the newest members of The Kilroys and was a writer for FX's The Americans. In her Artistic Statement, she tells us that "through Story we can climb inside others' lives, and quite possibly find understanding, empathy, unity and forgiveness." Her plays - which include Alligator and The Ghosts of Lote Bravo - reveal a writer who cares deeply about the possibility of change through human interaction.
The Rehearsal has wrapped principal photography. A new pilot written and directed by Jaclyn Bethany the ensemble cast features Caitlin Carver (I Tonya, Dear White People), Adam David Thompson (Godless, Mozart in the Jungle), Tina Benko (Broadway's The Crucible, Mapplethorpe, The Greatest Showman), Rileigh McDonald (title role in Matilda on Broadway, The Sinner), Alex Hurt (Placebo, Cat On A Hot Tin Roof), Jaclyn Bethany, Shay Lee Abeson (The Tale) and James Udom (Crown Heights, The Revolving Cycles Truly and Steadily Roll'd).
