Season 36 - Celebrating Immigration and Resisting Authoritarianism

Our 36th season launches in October 2025 with the 10th annual Scripts in Play festival—a free, gallery-based series of readings that weave contemporary playwrights into dialogue with classic themes.

In spring 2026, Two Gentlemen of Killarney charms with live music and an immigrant love-comedy set during the Great Famine, and Ghost Limb delivers a powerful, poetic confrontation of authoritarianism through mythic resonance set in Argentina’s Dirty War.

We need financial support to continue producing vibrant theatre in Arlington. To make a contribution to Avant Bard click here.
