Amazing
Great work of new american plays - one of the best Humana Festivals I have read. The cast of actors, directors, designers, and fight choreographers are top notch and excellent resource of up and coming people to see on stage.
The performances of these plays only helped to illuminate the writing - reading the words is just as great as seeing the productions - Actors Theatre of Louisville's Research Team has found another round of amazing talented writers to create their best Humana Festival.
