Target Margin Theater's STEIN LAB Begins 1/9

Target Margin Theater kicks off its 24th season, dedicated to Gertrude Stein, at The Bushwick Starr in January with its TMT Stein Lab. Curated by TMT Artistic Producer John Del Gaudio, over 75 artists will contribute to seven original pieces and three special events.

From Target Margin's earliest years, Gertrude Stein's playful spirit has been resonant and the company most recently staged her A Family of Perhaps Three directed by TMT Artistic Director David Herskovits. The TMT Stein Lab will explore more than 15 texts including her plays, operas, geographies, lectures and letters. There will be something for everyone as Stein's recurring themes of landscape, intellect, narrative and memory intersect with her rigorous sense of play.

The Lab, which has served over 1,000 emerging and mid-career artists since 1993, will feature work by Lead Artists Nic Adams, Adam R. Burnett, Nikki Calonge, Nehassaiu deGannes, Aaron Ethan Green and Megan Hill. There will also be a public showing of Stein's Reread Another directed by TMT's Artistic Director David Herskovits, a panel with Julia Jarcho, Shonni Enelow and Karinne Keithley Syers, a kickoff reading with TMT Associated Artists and a free daylong workshop/showing.
