PLAYWRIGHTS HORIZONS is a writer's theater dedicated to the support and development of contemporary American playwrights, composers and lyricists, and to the production of their new work. Under the artistic leadership of Tim Sanford, Playwrights Horizons continues to encourage new work of veteran writers while nuturing an emerging generation of theater artists. Writers are supported through every stage of their growth with a series of developmental programs: script and score evaluations, commissions, readings, writers' groups, musical theater workshops, and New Theater Wing productions in the Studio Theater, in addition to subscription productions in the Anne G. Wilder Theater. In its 27 years, Playwrights Horizons has presented the work of over 300 writers and is the recipient of numerous awards and honors. Notable productions include Williams Finn's March of the Falsettos, Christopher Durang's Sister Mary Ignatius Explains It All For You, Jon Robin Baitz's the Substance of Fire, Scott McPherson's Marvin's Room, A.R. Gurney's Later Life, Adam Guettel and Tina Landaus's Floyd Collins, Jeanine Tesori and Brian Crawley's Violet, as well as three Pulitzer Prize-winners: Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine's Sunday in the Park with George, Alfred Uhry's Driving Miss Daisy, and Wendy Wasserstein's The Heidi Chronicles. Playwrights Horizons was founded in 1971 at the Clark Center Y by Robert Moss, before moving to 42nd Street where it has been instrumental in the revitalization of Theater Row. André Bishop served as Artistic Director from 1981 to 1991, followed by Don Scardino, who served through 1995. Playwrights Horizons' auxiliary programs include the Playwrights Horizons Theater Shcool, which is affiliated with NYU's Tisch School of the Arts, and Ticket Central, a central box office that supports the Off-Broadway performing arts community. ------- Information in "Who's Who in the Cast" is provided by the production.
