FutureNow New Play Labs @ Chautauqua Theater Company
July 26 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Introducing the FutureNow New Play Labs—an exciting new program from Chautauqua Theater Company that invites audiences inside the creative process.
Experience new plays the moment they come to life. The FutureNow New Play Labs showcase original work by CTC’s inaugural class of Playwriting Fellows in collaboration with our Directing Fellows—a program developed through CTC’s newly expanded partnership with The Drama League—and brought to life in public, staged, and designed workshop readings.
Performed by CTC’s Acting Conservatory and designed by our Design Fellows, these student workshops mark CTC’s first ticketed presentations in the Roe Green Theater Center. With more artists, more fellows and more new work than ever before, audiences are invited inside the creative process as the next generation of playwrights, directors, actors and designers brings fresh stories to life.
This summer’s FutureNow New Play Lab productions include:
‘The Bone Wars’
The explosive true story of the legendary rivalry between two paleontologists in the late 1800s.
