The New Dramatists resident playwrights are coming upon their last few public workshops at the building before breaking for summer. Please take advantage of these dual-service, public workshops designed to offer low-cost writing classes to you! All proceeds go towards an Emergency Fund for writers in-need who apply...

Our next workshop, taught by Lucas Hnath, will take place on SATURDAY, MAY 5th, 12-3pm. Writers are asked to bring up to 10 pages of a play they're working on.

Please join us for a reading of this new play by Barbara Hammond.

Directed by Kevin Kittle.

This reading is open to the public. Please call 212-757-6960 for reservations.

This Lingering Life takes place in someplace like the U.S., where we meet a woman with tragic hair, feudal warriors, a mother whose son was kidnapped, a blind beggar, dead lovers, a pathetic old man in love with a teenager, a boy whose father is an arrow, and other sentient beings. It all happens in the present time, except when it happens in an ancient era.

Chiori will work with director David Herskovits May 14 - 18, with an open reading on May 18 at 3pm. Please call New Dramatists for reservations.
