Daphne Rubin-Vega, Jeff Biehl & More Set for Labyrinth Theater Company's Fall BARN SERIES; Spring Session Set

Labyrinth Theater Company, the award-winning, downtown ensemble, has announced that this season, there will be not one, but two chances for audiences to discover exciting new work at their earliest stages in the annual Barn Series readings. There will be a Fall Barn Series in November and Spring Barn Series in 2015 held at the Bank Street Theater in Manhattan's West Village (155 Bank Street).

Free, and open to the public, the Barn Series provides Labyrinth playwrights a supportive atmosphere in which artists and audiences can enter into a creative conversation about the future of a play in development.

Tickets will be available beginning at 6pm the day of the reading only at the Bank Street Theater box office, and all performances are at 8pm. Tickets are released on first-come, first-served basis; there are no advanced ticket reservations.

The lineup of free play readings for the 16th Annual Barn Series, that will run from November 4th - November 9th, is below.
