In the Raw
Developing the Classics of the Future.
This laboratory series provides an artistic bridge between Revelation Readings and Full Productions, providing full-fledged workshops for new projects under development. Each In The Raw workshop includes public presentations of the work-in-process, sharing the project's development with our audience as we work to create classics for the future.

Previous workshops have included plays based on work by Alfred de Musset, Virginia Woolf, and Shakespeare.  This season we will workshop a play inspired by Virgil's Aeneid.
