Dates: 03 Sep 2014 - 12 Oct 2014
Venue: The Lucille Lortel Theatre (121 Christopher Street, NY 10014)
Synopsis: 'Karen and Steve are glamorous movie stars with one thing in common: desperation. It's been years since either one's had a hit, but the latest movie by a hot shot European director could change that. The night before filming a big scene (that seems destined to assure them a spot back on the pop culture radar), Karen, her partner Bev, Steve, and his aspiring actress wife Missy meet in order to make an important decision: how far will they let themselves go to keep from slipping further down the Hollywood food chain?'

Punk Rock (New York Premiere)
Playwright: Simon Stephens
Genre: Drama
Director: Trip Cullman
Dates: 29 Oct 2014 - 07 Dec 2014
Venue: The Lucille Lortel Theatre (121 Christopher Street, NY 10014)
Synopsis: 'In a private school outside of Manchester, England a group of highly-articulate seventeen year-olds flirt and posture their way through the day while preparing for their A-Level mock exams. With hormones raging and minimal adult supervision, nothing can mask the underlying tension that becomes increasingly pronounced as the clock ticks towards the ultimate dismissal.'

The Nether (New York Premiere)
Playwright: Jennifer Haley
Genre: Drama/Thriller
Director: Anne Kaufman
Dates: 04 Feb 2015 - 15 Mar 2015
Venue: The Lucille Lortel Theatre (121 Christopher Street, NY 10014)
Synopsis: 'There is a new immersive realm for the senses online, a virtual playground where those who plug in are coaxed into acting out their darkest fantasies - with no consequences in the 'real' world. Or so it seems...until a young female detective begins an investigation to determine if there is a point at which thought or intention may actually constitute a crime within -- and outside of -- this new frontier.'

But restructuring their lives and their union according to role play and a new moral code upends everything they knew - and took for granted - about one another, their friends, and more importantly, who really holds the paddle!'
