the work next season work... It is a call to action and synonymous with the playwriting, designs and performances that
make theater anything but that four-letter word. This season brings us more “work” than ever before with adaptations and re-imaginings of classics and some new (and many returning) artists who look forward to welcoming you to the theater. Whether you have attended the Geffen recently or are considering a visit for the first time, our theaters offer a familiar and welcome setting in which you can appreciate the fruits of our labor. Beyond a mere job, we endeavor to bring you more art, more plays and more “work” as our vocation. It is this calling that created a season that, I hope, entices you to join us this coming year. Sincerely,
Randall Arney Artistic Director
