The city. A woman is restless. A woman is suffocating. A woman
is silenced. The woman revolts.
Inspired by the infamous 1927 Snyder/Gray murder trial, this rarely performed masterpiece portrays the hardened soul of America in
the Machine Age. Machinal follows the life of Young Woman who is
constrained by a society that favors men and money.
Next is Little Foxes by Lillian Hellman and then
an original play.
We will also present our 10-Minute Festival in
December and a special Halloween night of scary plays in our new black box
space on October 31.
Starting in January, we will teach classes in
playwrighting, acting and improv, and in March we will continue with
"PlayWorks," our readings of new plays where the audience can
give feedback to the playwright.
LASTLY!
We need artists who are engaged in the great social and
historic conversations of our time, artists who go beyond the headlines and
dig deep to find the complexity, the common humanity, the joy, and the
hidden poetry buried in the events that shape our world and our place in
it.
There’s a lot of noise out there and feedback loops that tell
you what you already know. But artists go beyond that. They tell a story
you haven’t heard yet, in a way you haven’t heard before. They take you on
a journey that changes what you think, what you feel, and how you act.
Please help us make sure we have the resources we need to help us support
our artists, so they can help us understand the world.
Will you show your support as we set the stage for New
Jersey's boldest indie theatre? Donations can be made below, and all amounts
are welcome.
