New Works is the cauldron in which new ideas, concepts and performance practices are presented to our audiences by the next generation of dramatic writers.
Just as Goethe and O’Neill were once new dramatic writers, so too are our graduate writers who seek fresh ways of telling compelling stories.
These productions partially fulfill the educational requirements of the School of Drama's BFA and MFA programs.
Tickets are free and available at the box office on the day of performance.
