Experience live theatre in the making! In its expanded commitment to the development of new plays, MTC presents works by new and emerging playwrights both local and from across this country. Playwrights are brought in to work with leading local artists, and a response session/Q&A with the playwright, director, and actors follows each performance.
Here, audiences experience the first steps in making a new play. The full-length script-in-hand staged readings are intimate and exciting but without the costumes, props and sets that would be involved in a full production.
All performances are FREE and are performed in MTC’s Lieberman Theatre. Call the MTC Box Office at 415.388.5208 or click below for tickets.
Please note that all Nu Werkz performances have festival seating (non-reserved).
The Nu Werkz Series is made possible by the generous support of N.J. “Sky” Cooper.
Accumulating honors and awards along the way, this playwright-on-the-rise is a storyteller with uncommon insight into his characters—none more compelling than Matthew Gibbon, a charismatic college president who thrives on controversy. On one fearless night, he wreaks havoc upon his own campus and then sits back to watch as those around him try to survive the chaos. But this time he may have gone too far. Will his unprincipled pursuit of his own deepest principles finally bring him down?
