Double Feature Announces Debut Season, August 21- September 9

Two Classic Plays. One Secret Location. This summer, a turn-of-the-century Brooklyn brownstone hosts two intimate, site-specific productions: A Midsummer Night's Dream directed by Katherine Wilkinson (Finding Avi at La Jolla Playhouse, Bloom Bloom Pow at New Georges, LORDES at the Ice Factory) invites you upstairs before the sun sets and Macbeth directed by Mikhaela Mahony (Dido of Idaho at EST, Dear Erich at New York City Opera) calls you down to the basement after dark.

Both shows run August 21-September 9. Tickets can be purchased now at doublefeatureplays.com. Audiences will range from 10-13 people; waitlist available for sold-out shows.

Double Feature is a collective of independent theater artists reimagining classic plays through intimate staging and contemporary reinterpretation. In our debut season, two directors take on two plays by the same playwright and stage them in the same location, creating paired, site-responsive productions that run side by side in conversation with one another. By creating intimate and immediate experiences with these plays, we aim to illuminate the classics for new audiences - or a new relationship with the classics for old audiences.
