I'm directing Stephen Kaplan's new short play, Helen Keller Visits Martha Graham's Dance Studio as part of Project Y Theatre's 3rd New York New Playwright Festival (NYNP) with #ParityPlays, by the Project Y Playwrights Group, where the casts are 50% or more women!
20 WRITERS. 9 NEW PLAYS.
3 WORLD PREMIERE PRODUCTIONS.
"Project Y's New York New Playwright Festival (NYNPF) was created in 2011 with the focus on playwrights and development of new work. We want to break the endless cycle of readings that many plays get trapped in by giving writers a chance to see their work up and on its feet before an audience in a review-free, supportive environment. It is the goal of NYNPF to allow each piece in the festival the space to grow in front of an audience by providing writers with the tools to mount a workshop production of their new play and “test it” with
Project Y."
