The Collected Plays of Eric Samuelsen
Today marks two years since Eric left us. It seems almost impossible that it’s been that long.
We are honored to have been Eric’s artistic home.

Although giving is more necessary than ever, we acknowledge it is also more complicated than ever.
We miss you Eric.
We can’t believe it’s been a year since you left us.
#PlayAtHome with Dee-Dee & Tito…and now Tatiana, Olivia, Brandan, Iris & Darryl!
We are thrilled to announce our participation in the #PlayAtHome project, a series of short plays to be enjoyed at home, commissioned specifically for this moment of unprecedented isolation, to inspire joy and connection for all.
