New Strands Festival 2017 MAYI

The New Strands American Conservatory Theater (A.C.T.)’s Associate Artistic Director Andy Donald announced the first projects to be chosen for A.C.T.’s inaugural New Strands Residency program. Three playwrights/plays from New York City’s acclaimed Ma-Yi Theater Company will participate. They include: The Great Leap by Lauren Yee, The Man from Saigon by Don Nguyen, and Snowflakes, or Rare White People by Dustin Chinn. The New Strands Residency gives emerging and established American playwrights the opportunity to create and develop new works in residence at A.C.T.’s state-of-the-art Strand Theater, located in the heart of San Francisco’s Central Market neighborhood. “When we put the call out to the Ma-Yi Writers Lab for the inaugural year of this program, we were overwhelmed by the amount of spectacular new work that came in from its membership,” says Donald. “These are all writers who are zeroed in on today’s American culture––its contradictions, its divisive politics, its future—so choosing just three was an enviable challenge. We could not be more thrilled to share Lauren, Don, and Dustin’s searing, often hilarious, deeply personal, and poignant work and watch it continue to grow with this esteemed group of directors and our San Francisco audience.” May, 2017, Former Exec. Director, Jorge Ortoll and Ma-Yi Communications Director, Charlie Read attended the NEW STRANDS FESTIVAL in San Francisco for the staged readings of writers Lab Members Lauren Yee, Dustin Chinn, Don Nguyen, and Dipika Ghua.
