Onstage is a two-story house. From one angle, it’s mucked out after a flood. From another, it’s a new development wrapped in Tyvek. And from another, it’s “Tara” from Gone with the Wind being transformed into an Airbnb. The piano can’t be tuned. Someone is quilting in the corner. Come in.

Co-written by 21 Black-, POC-, and white-identifying artists ranging in age from 29 to 99, RECONSTRUCTING is a new work by internationally-renowned theater collective the TEAM that wrestles with how, in the aftermath of slavery, we might move through history together. Propelled by a quilt-like score, this “complex and combustible project” (Sarah Holdren, Vulture) slips between fact and fiction and performance and ritual to tell a story of historical figures and fictional characters seeking and fleeing intimacy—and us as makers doing the same.

The Thin Place lifts the veil between the living and the dead as two women communicate with the other side. Aided by her new mentor and psychic medium, Linda, Hilda explores the divides between belief and skepticism, life and death, and the physical and spiritual realms. Lucas Hnath’s eerie and thought-provoking drama raises the question: What makes us believe in something we can’t see—and what makes us doubt?

������FLEX, Candrice Jones delivers a powerful exploration of ambition, identity, and sisterhood through the lens of a women’s basketball team. Set in the competitive world of high school sports, the play dives into the lives of these young athletes as they navigate the pressures of success, personal identity, and the divides that exist between their dreams and their realities. As the team battles for victory, they also confront the deeper, often invisible divides of race, class, and gender that shape their lives both on and off the basketball court. At its heart, FLEX is a celebration of resilience, self-discovery, and the power of community as these women come together to rise above the divides that seek to keep them down.

The true story of a little Jewish play, Indecent recounts the history of the groundbreaking 1923 Broadway play God of Vengeance which scandalized the Jewish community and the American public with its portrayal of love and desire between women. Set against the backdrop of rising fascism and the struggle for creative freedom, Indecent uncovers the divide between art and censorship, identity and persecution, as well as cultural divides both then and now. A testament to the power of art-making as an act of resistance, Indecent is a revolutionary story about finding the unflinching courage to speak truth through art.
