Philadelphia Theatre Company and others have received project funding.
The married team will serve as co-artistic directors of the Philly company, replacing Paige Price.
After 5 years at the helm of the LORT theatre, she will continue work as an independent producer and the theatre will conduct a nationwide search to replace her.
Love will receive a $5,000 cash award, developmental guidance, and dramaturgical support from Philadelphia Theatre Co. for his new play, ‘What Will Happen to All That Beauty?’
New plays by Amir Nizar Zuabi and J. Nicole Brooks and a capture of Jefferson Mays’s ‘Christmas Carol’ are among the highlights of a busy week.
The virtual season will include a production and conversation series led by new resident artist Jeffrey Page.
While this influential new-play conference developed plenty of new work, it also developed racist and sexist practices, say many artists and staff, necessitating a change of leadership.
For the actor/dancer it’s all about storytelling around the campfire, whether it’s theatre, dance, or AC/DC.
The season will include the world premiere of Christina Anderson’s ‘How to Catch Creation.’
Zeck will help to lead the theatre as it transitions to a new business model.
