In November 2002, the Pulitzer prize-winning Suzan-Lori Parks sat down and committed to writing a play a day for the next 365 days. This play cycle is called 365 Days/365 Plays. Over 600 theaters have joined a grassroots premiere of the plays in Atlanta, Austin, Chicago, Colorado, Greater Texas, Los Angeles, Minnesota, New York, The Northeast, San Francisco Bay Area, Seattle, The Southeast, Universities (365U), Washington D.C. and the Western U.S. The 365 National Festival is produced by Suzan-Lori Parks and Bonnie Metzgar. For information on the 365 National Festival, visit www.365days365plays.com.
Spearheading the New York component of 365 Days/365 Plays, The Public gathered together a diverse cross-section of New York City's theater companies to participate in this year-long project. Sixty-five theaters - selected by The Public and the 365 Days/365 Plays National Festival - performed these brief, brilliant snapshots from the imagination of one of America's leading playwrights in numerous locations throughout the city.
