On New Dramatists
During a trip across the United States in September 2018, I had the opportunity to get to know New Dramatists, a New York institution for playwrights. The artistic director Emily Morse devoted her time to me quite generously to tell me about the building and its history as well as about the structure of her work. I was also able to meet a few of the fellows in the house and discuss their work at New Dramatists with them.
A longer portrait of New Dramatists has now appeared in the January issue of Theater heute 2019.
