The 2007-2008 Season

Blackbird by David Harrower
Directed by Amy Saltz
April 4 through May 11, 2008

Ray and Una had an illicit relationship. Then he disappeared. Fifteen years later, Una has tracked him down at his office, looking to settle their unfinished business. Her desire to confront him unleashes a torrent of unresolved emotions. David Harrower's shocking play won London's Olivier Award and promises to leave you breathless. Guest director Amy Saltz predicts an evening of theater “not for the faint of heart.”

Please note that this production has strong adult content.

"I have rarely seen an audience watch a new work with quite such rapt attention...Blackbird is a drama that mixes guilt, memory and desire into the most potent of theatrical cocktails." - Daily Telegraph

Rabbit Hole by David Lindsay-Abaire
Directed by Rob Ruggiero
June 6 through July 20, 2008

Becca and Howard Corbett have everything they could want in life until fate shatters their idyllic home and leaves the couple drifting perilously apart. Rabbit Hole is a portrait of a family…a bittersweet, rich and funny journey through grief that is ultimately a story of hope, reminding us of the power of the human spirit to heal and get back to the business of living. “A revelation…laced with wit…compassion and searing honesty.” - Variety

No Child... by Nilaja Sun
Directed by Rob Ruggiero
August 15 through September 28, 2008

Follow a teaching artist as they head into one of New York’s toughest inner-city schools. Over the course of six weeks, the teacher attempts to get the students to put on a play. Over a dozen characters including the school’s parents, teachers, administrators, a janitor, and the students, for whom just getting to school every day can be a struggle, come to life in this bracing comedic tour-de-force. Essential viewing for those who care about the state of public education, The New York Times calls No Child..., “Marvelous! Touching and funny.”
