What
Stable Cable is thrilled to provide Ken Urban's exciting play Nibbler the critical time and space it needs to grow in an intensive workshop setting. By putting the play into the body of actors guided by the experienced direction of Stephen Brackett (Buyer and Cellar, The Tenant), the playwright will be able to more deeply explore his play. This extended rehearsal process will culminate in a workshop production with an invited audience. The results of the workshop production – including the actors’ experience with the work, the aesthetics of the director and designers, and the audience’s feedback – will be invaluable to the development of this new play.
