Hundreds of lovers of new theatre will gather this August for an advance look at tomorrow’s hits at TheatreWorks Silicon Valley’s 21st New Works Festival. Returning to Palo Alto’s Lucie Stern Theatre to celebrate the company’s legacy for fostering new theatre, this unique festival offers audiences an extraordinary opportunity to experience new plays and musicals in their early stages of development. With multiple performances of each work and input from the audiences, playwrights and composers are able to revise and refine their shows during the festival, allowing audiences to view the exciting evolution of brand-new pieces of theatre. Readings and events from August 9-18, 2024—for more information, visit https://theatreworks.org/new-works/nwf/ About Vichet Chum’s “Liebling”: Showtimes: Tuesday 8/13 @ 7pm Saturday 8/17 @ 3pm
With insecure futures ahead, two promising American novelists confront war-haunted heritages, Cambodian and German, hoping to salvage their personal lives in the process. Finding humor and hope in a rundown cottage, pie shop, and prestigious museum, this remarkable new drama captures their loves and losses, missteps, and muted memories.
