Second Stage Theatre's 35th Anniversary Season, which will celebrate the company's Founder and Artistic Director Carole Rothman with a spring gala this May, continues the company's mission of producing bold new plays and musicals by American playwrights as well as second stagings of the best of contemporary theatre.
