TRU to Present 'Meet Naked Angels, a Community of Unconventional Artists'

A dependable haven for artists in isolation, Theater Resources Unlimited (TRU) is now in its fourth year of non-stop weekly Community Gatherings this Friday, having offered to date over 200 conversations and unlimited camaraderie since April 17, 2020. TRU hosts these Community Gatherings every Friday at 5pm ET via Zoom, originally presented to explore the creation of art and theater in the time of COVID-19, and now to ensure that these crucial conversations continue going forward as theater reopens.

10/25 - Meet Naked Angels, a Community of Unconventional Artists.

In the room: Renée-Michele Brunet (stage manager, music director); Jean Marie McKee (artistic director, 3T programs), Michael C. O'Day and Barbara Matovu (co-creative directors of Tuesdays@9) and Bryant Jager (director of operations). Founded in 1986 as a company-led community of writers, directors, actors, producers and designers, Naked Angels shifted in the 90s to an artistic director model, still maintaining a mission of showcasing new and exciting voices, often outraged and irreverent, that challenged audiences with fresh perspectives of the times. Hear how they have evolved, adapted, and built a solid infrastructure overseeing programs that include Tuesdays@9, New York City's longest-running cold reading series of excerpts from brand new works-in-progress; 1st Mondays free series of monthly full-length readings; as well as 3T educational workshops bringing the arts to schools. Now in its 38th year, what is the secret of its longevity? What do they look for in new works? And how do artists become part of this vibrant creative community?
