Our writers We support each playwright’s full creative development and nurture their unique voice, resulting in a heterogeneous mix of as many styles as there are artists. Our productions We share the stories of today by the writers of tomorrow. These intrepid, diverse artists develop plays and musicals that are relevant, intelligent, and boundary-pushing. Our plays reflect the world around us through stories that can only be told on stage. Our audience Much like our work, the 60,000 people who join us each year are curious and adventurous. Playwrights is committed to engaging and developing audiences to sustain the future of American theater. That’s why we offer affordably priced tickets to every performance to young people and others, and provide engaging content — both onsite and online — to delight and inspire new play lovers in NYC, around the country, and throughout the world. Our process We meet the individual needs of each writer in order to develop their work further. Our New Works Lab produces readings and workshops to cultivate our artists’ new projects. Through our robust commissioning program and open script submission policy, we identify and cultivate the most exciting American talent and help bring their unique vision to life.

Ars Nova operates on the unceded land of the Lenape peoples on the island of Manhahtaan (Mannahatta) in Lenapehoking, the Lenape Homeland. We acknowledge the brutal history of this stolen land and the displacement and dispossession of its Indigenous people. We also acknowledge that after there were stolen lands, there were stolen people. We honor the generations of displaced and enslaved people that built, and continue to build, the country that we occupy today. We gathered together in virtual space to watch this performance. We encourage you to consider the legacies of colonization embedded within the technology and structures we use and to acknowledge its disproportionate impact on communities of color and Indigenous peoples worldwide.

  • Black Theatre Insights
    Black History Month & Theatre Insights 1 Purpose: As a way to acknowledge, highlight, celebrate, uplift, and honor the past and present Black theatre artists who have contributed so much to our theatre canon, I thought it would be worthwhile in creating daily emails to be sent throughout the month of February which consisted of a fact, artist, and play of the day. These daily emails culminated in a Black History Month Play Exchange on February 27th, as an event and space for folks to come together to give and share presentations on their chosen play from the list of plays sent out over the course of the month. It is my hope that we take the spirit of widening our knowledge of our theatre history and work towards making known the contributions of all the marginalized groups who have been critical in cementing the foundation of the theatre we all enjoy today. Acknowledgments: Thank you to Adarian Sneed for helping me create this idea during those late zoom calls on those cold, lonely winter break nights where we just laughed, existed, and bolstered one another’s creative thoughts. Thank you to the Anthony Aston Players for allowing me the space to use your listserv as a way to spread this knowledge and history. Thank you to Leslie Spencer and Sierra Browning for helping contribute some of the artist spotlights. I am forever grateful to all the kind emails I received from folks in support of this project as it truly made these emails an important part of my daily routine.
