RAPTURE, BLISTER, BURN, CHICAGO and More Set for Nashville Rep's 2015-16 Season

By:
Nashville Repertory Theatre is proud to announce its 2015-16 season. Producing Artistic Director René D. Copeland notes that the season will include, "a hot Pulitzer Prize-nominated contemporary play, a famous classic, the world premiere of a new play, and a great American musical."

"While it's always a challenge to balance all the things that affect show selection," Copeland says, "I ultimately strive for a slate that is an interesting mix of styles and genres and which has good artistic variety for our audience while providing challenges that we at Nashville Rep get excited about as artists."
