    New Voices Festival 2016 Sheryl and Harvey White Theatre Conrad Prebys Theatre Center January 15 – 17, 2016 Welcome to our third annual New Voices Festival! The Old Globe boasts a long and distinguished history as an incubator of new American works for the stage, and with the New Voices Festival we are proud to build on that strong legacy. We’re committed to bringing the best new playwriting to San Diego, and we love to give you opportunities to see the artistic process in action. We’re also working to expand the support we are able to give the outstanding writers who join us for the Festival. This year, two of the creative teams spent a week with us at the theatre, developing their pieces in collaboration with actors and the artistic staff of the Globe. This Festival is central to our efforts to develop a multifaceted new play development infrastructure here, and we are pleased to see it grow from year to year. We always hope that the New Voices Festival will launch ongoing relationships with the writers we feature. Since 2013, we’ve commissioned new work from two of the Festival playwrights (JC Lee and Anna Ziegler), programmed a new play by a Festival playwright (Kimber Lee’s tokyo fish story), and in just a few weeks, on this very stage, we will open the world premiere of a piece we originally read in the Festival: Anna Ziegler’s The Last Match. The exciting artists joining us this year approach the theatre from many angles, but they all share a common goal: to distill the American experience into vivid theatrical form.
