Life is changing with unprecedented speed. Technological innovation, social upheaval and a new geopolitical order make our contemporary experience unpredictable, amazing and at times unnerving.
Our playwrights take in these realities and reflect them back to us in ways that are both recognizable and revealing. They spin worlds of imagination across our stages each night – worlds of deep contemplation, of irreverent wit, of dazzling beauty.
At Magic Theatre, master playwrights and emerging talent stand side-by-side engaged in the great endeavor of making sense of the here and now. Pulitzer Prize-winner Paula Vogel and the acclaimed Irish novelist Edna O’Brien lead this season’s group of playwrights. It’s our job to breathe life into the worlds they create. It’s our pleasure to share their discoveries with you.
Welcome to the new play experience. Welcome to our brave new worlds.
