Soho Rep. Launches Job Creation Program Called SOHO REP. PROJECT NUMBER ONE  Image

Soho Rep. today announced that eight theater-makers will join its staff for the 2020-2021 season. Responding to the extreme precarity the artistic community is experiencing amidst a dire lack of government intervention, Soho Rep. Project Number One creates jobs to support artists in this moment and will be part of building a new path forward. The group is made up of artists who have been in community with Soho Rep. through recent projects, or have been in talks to work with the company in the near future: Becca Blackwell, Shayok Misha Chowdhury, Stacey Derosier, David Mendizábal, Ife Olujobi, David Ryan Smith, Carmelita Tropicana, and Tow Playwright-in-Residence Jillian Walker. Each of them will receive a salary of $1,250 per week from September 21, 2020, through June 30, 2021 (totaling $50K) and health insurance from October 1, 2020, through June 30, 2021.

Soho Rep. has long been artist-led and has in its mission the charge to "elevate artists as thought leaders and citizens who change the field and society." Amidst the global health crisis and nationwide (and industry specific) calls for racial and social justice, and recognizing that the world, and theater, will never and should never return to "normal," the organization's Directors (Sarah Benson, Cynthia Flowers and Meropi Peponides) and Board see the current moment as an opportunity to build a community around deliberate conversations and experiments that aim to transcend calcified industry norms, and create a more sustainable, ethically-sound, equitable theater. They will consider their hopes for what theater prioritizes in the wake of the pandemic and social uprising; for expanding, deepening, and shifting the bounds of what constitutes a "production"; and for re-envisioning production processes, season models, and space use around all of these conversations.

The resident artists will also each create an artistic project-that can take any form determined by the artist, from socially distant theater performance, to a written publication, to a digital recording, to an installation at 46 Walker street-that will be shared publicly with Soho Rep. audiences, throughout the next nine months, in keeping with unfolding COVID-19 safety protocols. They will each lead their own projects-with a budget of $10,000 each.

Meropi Peponides "We felt it was important to cultivate a community of artists, each of whom will bring a unique perspective to grappling with how we emerge from this moment. These artists have expressed an interest in interrogating the relationship between artist and institution; they integrate their values deeply into their artistic practice, and show a generosity of spirit toward the work of other artists. We wanted this group to represent a range of disciplines, challenging the hierarchies that typically exist in theater, and to be intergenerational-ranging from artists with a depth of history working in the field in NYC over decades to people who had just begun their practice in the past few years."

Sarah Benson "It should not be a wild experiment or a radical act to wholeheartedly recognize the enormous benefit that artists offer society. Unfortunately, given the federal response, it is. So we are over the moon to be launching this job creation program and to be in robust conversation with eight extraordinary artists this season as we figure out together what we want to make, and who we want to be, on the other side of this. I cannot wait to see what comes out of our time together."

Cynthia Flowers "While COVID-19 has had a meaningful impact on all of our lives, it is an unfortunate reality that theaters were among the first businesses to close, and will be among the last to fully reopen. This ongoing, involuntary hibernation of the field en masse is creating a snowballing community crisis, and many freelance artists are bearing the brunt of this catastrophe. We have been so inspired by the continuum of responses from folks who are activating the power they do have to make a difference right now: from artists organizing mutual aid funds, to theaters that are awarding smaller grants to hundreds of arts workers; to foundations who have provided emergency grants with no strings attached; to those who are making work for people to enjoy at home at a time when we are all feeling so isolated. We are grateful for the significant emergency funding that our institution has received from individuals and organizations like the New York Community Trust and the Howard Gilman Foundation. We want to pay this generosity forward, and work together as a collective hand-in-hand with artists to ensure that both our theater and our entire community comes out of this stronger than ever over the long term."

At the core of this project-bridging the typical gaps and leveling power dynamics between institution and artist-is a bi-weekly three-hour meeting of the cohort with Soho Rep. staff members, and sometimes including artist Board members, Writer/Director Lab co-chairs, and members of the company's continuing Lab cohort.

Running in parallel, Soho Rep. continues its 2019-2021 Writer/Director Lab, which supports the development of four projects created by collaborative teams over 18 months, culminating in work-in-progress presentations; and its STUDIO, which fully supports the development of new work, from first impulse through full production, over the course of several years. 2019-2021 Lab members are Jeesun Choi & Bryn Herdrich, Nia Farrell & Talia Paulette Oliveras, Keenan Hurley & Kedian Keohan, and Kate Moore Heaney & Divya Mangwanim; the Lab is co-chaired by William Burke & Jackie Sibblies Drury. Soho Rep. commissions artists with an upfront commitment to production and will award two new $15,000 commissions to Garrett Allen and Raja Feather Kelly. Artists already commissioned or developing work in the Studio program include Becca Blackwell; Alice Birch; Jorge Ignacio Cortiñas; Jackie Sibblies Drury; Branden Jacobs-Jenkins & Carmelita Tropicana; Narcissister; Radical Evolution; Kate Tarker; and Jillian Walker.

Soho Rep. plans to recommence productions in the 2021-22 season, or earlier if conditions allow, and to stage the following works when it does: Hansol Jung's Wolf Play, directed by Dustin Wills, produced in association with Ma-Yi Theater Company, and postponed from Spring 2020 due to the pandemic; while you were partying, by Peter Mills Weiss and Julia Mounsey with Brian Fiddyment, postponed from Summer 2020; Omar Vélez Meléndez's Notes on Killing Seven Oversight, Management and Economic Stability Board Members directed by David Mendizábal; Kate Tarker's Montag, directed by Dustin Wills; and Jillian Walker's Untitled Work(ing) for Whitney, directed by Jenny Koons. In order to alleviate the financial challenges presented by the prolonged COVID-19 shutdowns of theater in New York, Soho Rep. will pay lead artist advances for these projects now.

The company also announces that author, actress, and director Amber Tamblyn will join the Soho Rep. board, following the recent additions of Paige Blansfield (Program Manager, Special Projects, Corporate Social Responsibility at American Express); poet, playwright, and MacArthur Fellow Claudia Rankine; and Daniel C. Smith (Director of Finance, St. Ann's Warehouse). Cynthia Flowers says, "Amber is an incredible artist and activist who has been coming to see work at Soho Rep. for over a decade. She is exactly the kind of community builder and thinker that we're eager to invite into the company in a leadership role. We are inspired by her passion for our work, and feel lucky to have her as an advocate for our theater. "
