Performances set for October 3–5, 2025 in Rhinebeck.
Howl Playwrights will celebrate its tenth anniversary with Howl in the Black Box – RESIST!, three evenings of staged readings on the theme of resistance.
The event will take place October 3–5 at the Rhinebeck Center for the Performing Arts’ Black Box (661 NY-308, Rhinebeck, NY).
This year’s festival features nine new plays that range from detention center nightmares to TikTok apocalypses and subversive fairy tales.
Highlights include Martina Deignan’s No Warning, a harrowing exploration of immigration injustice; Dean Temple’s The Fifth Horseperson, where teenage distraction escalates into world-ending consequences; Paul Allman’s satirical Collecto-mania Caravan; and David Simpatico’s darkly comic Gretal and Hansel.
