“As we emerge from trying times, the ideas behind transformation feel particularly relevant. As we move ahead, we will not be looking to restore or return to previous ways, but rather to evolve in reflective, positive ways. Through theatre, we have the power to transform our lives and community.” states Kate Warner, New Rep’s Artistic Director.
Ms. Warner continues, “In planning my second season at New Rep, I was drawn to strong writers who explored ideas of transformation and scripts wherein the characters have an experience that changes them in some significant way,”
