The Signature Ticket Initiative proudly continues its "Next Four Years" announcement through Signature's 20th Anniversary Season in 2010-2011.
2009-2010
Horton Foote Legacy Season -- Subscriptions Available Now!
THE ORPHANS' HOME CYCLE is a world premiere production that encompasses nine newly adapted plays by Pulitzer Prize and Academy Award-winning playwright Horton Foote into a three-part theatrical event. Co-produced with Hartford Stage, each part of the three part cycle will be staged individually as well as in repertory and one-day marathons. Audiences may choose to see the individual parts or the entire trilogy. Over three dozen artists will come together over a nine month period to present this historic production.
2010-2011
20th Anniversary Season - Tony Kushner
One of the most celebrated and renowned of our contemporary writers, Tony Kushner's fiercely passionate, ambitious, and provocative plays are classics in the American theatre canon. His plays include Angels in America: A Gay Fantasia on National Themes (Pulitzer Prize, Tony Drama Desk, Evening Standard and New York Critics Circle Awards), A Bright Room Called Day, Homebody/Kabul, and the Tony-nominated musical Caroline or Change. The 2010-2011 season will include the first major New York revival of Angels in America, along with two other shows to be announced.
Signature's last two exciting years:
2007-2008
Charles Mee
Over the past 20 years, Charles Mee has established himself as one of the nation's most original and innovative playwrights. His plays range from fierce political deconstructions to frothy romantic comedies but they are all linked by a wild, fun, irreverent theatricality that takes risks and defies expectations. Among other awards, he is the recipient of the lifetime achievement award in drama from the American Academy of Arts and Letters.
Legacy Playwright: Edward Albee
For nearly fifty years Edward Albee has explored the dark undersides of family, identity, love, and death, in plays that range from comically absurdist to brutally realistic.
The legacy production of Edward Albee's Occupant is supported
by by The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. Additional support is provided
by the Laura Pels Foundation and the Blanche & Irving Laurie Foundation.
2008-2009
Negro Ensemble Company
Signature's unique mission evolves with the examination of a body of work from this collective of writers whose contributions have helped shape America's theatrical heritage.
Support for the 2008-09 Negro Ensemble
Company Season is provided by American Express.
