Bread and Wine prioritizes the development of new concepts on the stage. From a script perspective, original work will always be part of the company's seasons. While this original work may come from the outside as finalized drafts, Bread and Wine puts on collaborating with playwrights to originate new work. Table Reads are a key part of our artistic model. These include both readings of scripts with no production plans as well as at times committing to producing a play whose early drafts we believe in and walking with the playwright through the entire process from first table read to final production. From a producing and rehearsal perspective, this means we are open to innovative ways of getting a show to the stage. While we will surely approach many shows with a traditional rehearsal/production process, ideas such as ensemble-based directing, intensive modular rehearsal scheduling, and many others are always on the table for a potential future production.
