Our 24/25 Season
Red Theater returns to The Edge Off Broadway for the 24/25 season with two shows exploring the limits of our bodies, the forward march of time, and the mystery of the hot dog. Get ready for two new stories of ambition amid setback, connection amid isolation, and riding the overwhelming cultural waves of modern life.
The World Premiere of
DOGS
by Hanna Kime
Directed by Becca Holloway
November 1st - November 24th, 2024
It is the Fourth of July sometime in the future, and history is about to be made. We are about to witness the annual Hot Dog Eating Contest. The five women invited to this stage have set out to conquer nature, destroy their own limits, and shatter our perception of what the human body is or isn’t capable of. DOGS is a dizzying, anti-plot, high-intensity exploration of capitalism, competition, and consumption that begs the question: how long can we keep all this up? - New Play Exchange
KAIROS
by Lisa Sanaye Dring
Directed by Clare Brennan
April 25th - May 18th, 2025
Two people fall in love during a tectonic shift in society. Their nascent relationship is tested by the advent of Prometheus, a procedure that grants immortality to a select few. What happens to commitment, meaning and care when linear time breaks open? - New Play Exchange
