"Reality is something we make up as we go along, and this season laughter lights the way. Our modern American plays show characters unmoored from the habits of convention -- characters whose simple acts of daily life become deft improvisations. We follow their daring exploration, guided by humor and by heart. And at the end of the day, we realize now is always the right moment to reinvent the world."
- Artistic Director Richard Henrich
