NEW NEIGHBORHOOD is a theater and television company whose sincerity and authenticity are so combustible, it cannot be housed under one roof for too long without doing severe structural damage. With new work, bruised work, all-singing, all-dancing, foul-mouthed musical work, New Neighborhood seeks to harvest the organs of its audience and sell them back to their owners within the time houselights dim and rise, or the DVR records and deletes. New Neighborhood is a particular ordinance of Actors, Designers, Directors, Dramaturgs, Musicians, Graphic Novelists, Producers, Writers, Widows, Widowers and bad, browned-on-both-sides Balladeers. New Neighborhood finds a show, produces the shit outta it, and disappears into a cloud of train smoke. Recent theatrical projects and partnerships include The Petersons: In the Bleak Mid-Winter at the Cutting Room (NYC), These Paper Bullets! by Rolin Jones with music by Billie Joe Armstrong at the Geffen Playhouse (Los Angeles) and Atlantic Theater Company (NYC), and the world premiere of Suzanne Heathcote's I Saw My Neighbor on the Train and I Didn't Even Smile (co-produced by Berkshire Theatre Festival and New Neighborhood).
