Know a Theatre: Burning Coal Theatre Company of Raleigh, N.C.

This theatre company got its start in an old school auditorium with wedding-gift money.

The lineup will include three mainstage productions, free performances with the Chicago Avenue Project, and a new-works festival.

The lineup include swashbuckling adventures, Shakespearean tragedies, and a holiday favorite.

The lineup will include four new plays, from political thrillers to murder mysteries.

Emerging playwrights Mariah L. Richardson, Shualee Cook, and Kristin Idaszak have been selected to participate.

Suilebhan, who currently serves as director of brand and marketing for Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company, will start next week.

Their shared leadership, and segregated duties, keep Palm Beach Dramaworks afloat.

They will each receive $100,000 in recognition of their work as lyricists; Charlie Sohne is also recognized for his work as a librettist.

The Little Rock native will begin the new post in August, taking the helm of the Rep after it briefly suspended operations.

The lineup will include six contemporary plays, including a world premiere adaptation by Stephen Sachs.
