Promethean is intensely excited to be able to continue their mission of bringing South Florida audiences a new work, a contemporary play and an updated classic or revival each season. As they continue to grow and connect with audiences so does the work they are able to present. That "connection" is the theme that runs through their 4th season and these exciting plays.
In the fall they will open with the world premiere of Juan C. Sanchez's new play Red Tide. Written as part of Downstage Miami, Juan developed Red Tide under the mentorship of Leslie Ayvazian.
In the spring they bring to South Florida The Violet Hour. Richard Greenberg jazzes up the jazz age in this mysterious comedy about fame fortune and friendship. And next summer Mark E. Hayes who gave us Cyrano in Miami, introduces to a political themed adaptation of Molière's Tartuffe.

What would you do if you knew your own destiny?
In this profound and fantastic comedy set amidst the glitter and luxury of 1919 Manhattan, a fledgling publisher can only print one book – torn between manuscripts by two people he loves in very different ways and an unexpected vision of the future, he is forced to decide at what price he can ignore tomorrow to live in the promise of today.
RICHARD GREENBERG(Playwright) is the author of over 25 plays including: Three Days of Rain (LA Drama Critics Circle Award, Olivier and Drama Desk nominations), Take Me Out (Tony, New York Drama Critics, Drama Desk, Outer Critics Circle, Lortel and Drama League Awards) and The Dazzle (Outer Critics Circle Award, Lucille Lortel and John Gassner nominations). Recently, his adaptation of August Strindberg's Dance of Death could be seen on Broadway, starring Ian McKellen and Hellen Mirren. He is a winner of the Oppenheimer Award, the first winner of the PEN/Laura Pels Award for a playwright in mid-career and has twice been a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize.
