SCROLL DOWN TO SEE The Waterfront Museum Barge (www.waterfrontmuseum.org) In May BNW toured the NY/NJ harbor with a staged reading of Budd Schulberg's classic: On The Waterfront kicking off a summer of site-specific events. Using the 95-year-old barge's gangways, hatches and rooftop the cast of 20 presented the play at three different piers in Red Hook, Manhattan and Hoboken, New Jersey.

I have long been a fan of Brave New World, and feel so lucky to have been invited into the fold to work with such a dynamic and dedicated group of people. The work they do is both inspiring, and invaluable. And what a treat it’s been for me personally to revisit a play that I haven’t worked on in over ten years. Fuddy Meers was essentially my first play produced in New York, so it holds a special place in my heart. - David Lindsay-Abaire

DAVID LINDSAY-ABAIRE received the 2007 Pulitzer Prize for Drama for his play Rabbit Hole, which premiered on Broadway at MTC’s Biltmore Theatre. Rabbit Hole received five Tony nominations, including Best Play, and the Spirit of America Award. David was most recently awarded the Ed Kleban Award as America’s most promising musical theatre lyricist for his work on Shrek the Musical (book and lyrics), his newest show, currently running at the Broadway Theater. David’s other works include Fuddy Meers, Kimberly Akimbo, Wonder of the World and A Devil Inside, among others. In addition to his work in theatre, David is writing the screenplay for Sony Picture’s upcoming Spider-Man 4, and a screen adaptation of his Kimberly Akimbo for Killer Films. His screenplay for Rabbit Hole goes into production this summer, starring Nicole Kidman and Aaron Eckhart. David is a proud New Dramatists alum, a graduate of Sarah Lawrence College and the Juilliard School, as well as a member of the WGA and the Dramatists Guild Council.
