Join us for the premiere staged reading of our new play by Doug Robinson in collaboration with the devising company of Faction of Fools! You're Not Special: A Collaborative Playwrighting Project took place over the course of five months and four intensive workshops and explores themes of pastoral comedy, destiny, and finding delight and satisfaction in the ordinary. A fully staged production of Robinson’s new play is planned for spring 2026.

Last employed in our 2023 Helen Hayes Recommended production of Love Like Tuesday, our collaborative playwrighting process embodies the values of Faction of Fools by showcasing that when art is created collaboratively by a diverse group of artists, excellence and joyous wonder abound.

How can you find us?? The performance will be at the black box theatre inside the Capitol Hill Arts Workshop at 545 7th Street SE, Washington, DC 20003. CHAW is located by Eastern Market metro stop. Street parking is available on a first come first served basis.
