'Wait Until Dark' plucks the strings of your anxieties one by one until your muscles are screaming for the inevitable crash of expectation that comes at the end of a thrilling work of art. But a script can’t do it on its own. It needs the right cast, the right crew, and the right moment to come to life and enrapture an audience in the way that only live theater can.

Outside New York City, it is Connecticut that has almost an embarrassment of riches when it comes to theater. Forty years ago, a group of actors, writers and directors, including Keir Dullea and his late wife Susie Fuller, founded Theatre Artists Workshop as a place where they could experiment and cultivate new works, hone their skills, and work with their peers in a place that is safe from the glare of the public spotlight.
Theatre Artists Workshop's annual fundraising performance will be presented virtually and will feature original and reimagined works written, directed, and performed by Workshop Members. This virtual event is in place of TAW's annual spring & fall festivals, which were cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
