Artistic Director Aimée Hayes has announced the seven productions that make up Southern Rep Theatre's provocative new 2009/2010 Season - a mix of bold story-telling and innovative musical works, and the return of Southern Rep's new play festival, reborn as the SOUTHERN REP NEW PLAY BACCHANAL. As the Gulf Coast South's premiere professional theatre, Southern Rep's 23rd season includes two world premieres and five regional premieres. Following the critically acclaimed 2008/2009 season, it will focus on community partnerships with fellow arts organizations to embrace NOLA's own performing arts community.
This season, Southern Rep is proud to present the World Premiere of The NOLA Project actor and playwright Peter McElligott's WITH A BANG, a co-production with that young, fresh and ferocious theatre company, as well as the regional premiere of OPUS by Michael Hollinger. A co-presentation with JuneBug Productions, Ashé Cultural Arts Center, and Tulane University, Southern Rep is thrilled to bring the dynamic theatre group Universes' new project AMERIVILLE to New Orleans. Other regional debuts include Doug Wright's I AM MY OWN WIFE co-produced with All Kinds of Theatre and THE PIANO TEACHER by Julia Cho. THE PIANO TEACHER will open with the winner of Southern Rep's 10 Minute Play Riot, a part of SOUTHERN REP'S NEW PLAY BACCHANAL, a new amped-up version of the former SRT Fest of New Plays. Finishing out the season will be the regional premiere of the Tony winning musical, GREY GARDENS, in a co-production with Le Petit Théâtre du Vieux Carré on Le Petit's stage.
