New WORLD Theater and Mount Holyoke College join the largest theater collaboration in U.S. History featuring special lecture with playwright Suzan-Lori Parks

In 2002, Pulitzer prize-winning Suzan-Lori Parks sat down and committed to writing a play a day for a full 365 days. Now, the world premiere of this play cycle will be performed as a year-long national festival where over 600 theaters and university campuses will produce these theatrical works in major cities and communities around the country.

Each theater has been assigned their own set of plays to present during their week of the festival. NWT presents their plays Feb. 22, 23 and 24 and MHC will present their assigned plays March 2,3 and 4. Both events happen at the Rooke Theatre, Mount Holyoke College.

Special guest and playwright Suzan-Lori Parks will speak on Monday March 5 in the Rand Theater from 4-5:30 pm. Presented by the UMass Department of Theater, Mount Holyoke College Department of Theater and New WORLD Theater. For tickets call: 413-538-2406
