Photo Coverage: Inside Opening Night of THE POOL at The Flea Theater

Dec. 08, 2017  

The Pool, a pop-up theater company, will present three new plays in rotating rep from November 15 - December 16, 2017 in a limited 5-week engagement at The Flea Theater's brand-new Tribeca home, located at 20 Thomas Street. The plays are Susan Bernfield's TANIA IN THE GETAWAY VAN directed by Portia Krieger, Peter Gil-Sheridan's THE RAFA PLAY directed by Morgan Gould, and Lynn Rosen's WASHED UP ON THE POTOMAC directed by José Zayas.

The Pool is a pop-up theater company, a temporary consortium formed by playwrights Lynn Rosen, Peter Gil-Sheridan and Susan Bernfield to drive their own processes and produce their ready-to-go plays. Their three plays will be presented in rotating rep this November/December, after which The Pool will be passed on to three other intrepid playwrights so they too can take the reins of their own trajectory. The Pool is a participant in New Georges' Supported Productions program, in which the company provides resources, mentorship and an institutional platform to its affiliated artists who are producing their work independently. New Georges is an Anchor Partner at The Flea for the 2017-18 season.
