2009's Festival of New Works:
.
Confronting Chekhov is a success!
NYTheatre.com raves,
"Clearly, the Brooklyn Playwrights Collective
has a talented stable of writers who I commend
for taking on Anton Chekhov without bogging
things down in dreariness and despair.
One of the company's slogans is
'Support your local playwright.'
After seeing this evening of plays,
I most certainly will."
