We've curated a selection of edgy, modern work with talent such as Sarah Drew from Grey's Anatomy, Josh Stamberg from The Affair, and Brittany Snow from Pitch Perfect, who help us bring to life the words of contemporary playwrights. From the chaotic family in Pulitzer Prize finalist Becky Shaw, to the couple finding romance in higher math in Completeness, to the courageous title character in the gender identity drama Boy, we know you'll love what you hear."
