Funded by a National New Play Network (NNPN) Collaboration Fund Grant, Core Member Theatres Cleveland Public Theatre, InterAct Theatre Company (Philadelphia, PA) and Kitchen Dog Theater (Dallas, TX) have embarked on a groundbreaking playwright exchange project called Cross-Pollination. Through Cross-Pollination, theatres with shared aesthetics and missions identify plays grown in their own backyards poised for larger prominence, pairing their local playwrights with a theatre sharing their artistic values. Each theatre works with a playwright outside its sphere of influence; each playwright develops a relationship with a producing organization to which they otherwise wouldn't have been able to connect. The result is an immediate, meaningful artistic connection between theatres and artists that transcends state lines and logistical limits. For the pilot year of the program, the following pairings have been arranged: James Ijames and his play history of walking (from InterAct Theatre Company) will go to Cleveland Public Theatre in January as part of the Entry Point Festival of New Works (1/18-20); Jonathan Norton and his play A Love Offering (from Kitchen Dog Theater) will go to InterAct Theatre Company in May; and Lisa Langford and her play Rastus & Hattie (from Cleveland Public Theatre) will go to Kitchen Dog Theater in June.

Fans of John Steinbeck will not want to miss this delightful parody of Grapes of Wrath and Of Mice and Men.
