One of the nation’s oldest and most respected developers of new works for the theatre, PlayGround will mark its third decade of incubating new plays by hosting simultaneous parties in New York City, Chicago, Los Angeles and San Francisco on Monday, September 16, 2024. The events, which will also be livestreamed, will feature a starry array of playwright alumni, including many of the busiest names in theatre today. The PlayGround 30th Anniversary Gala will celebrate the company’s monumental history of launching over 350 significant new playwrights and over 1,500 new plays onto the national theatre scene, by playwrights including Lauren Yee, Jonathan Spector, Geetha Reddy, Diana Burbano, and Cleavon Smith, among hundreds of others.
