We are fueled by our desire, as playwrights, to communicate directly with our audiences with shows that are adventurous and event-driven: a full-bodied experience that can only happen in live theatre. Workhaus is a diverse group of nationally recognized playwrights based in the Twin Cities. We are: Janet Allard, Trista Baldwin, Alan Berks, Kimberly Burke, Jeannine Coulombe, Christina Ham, Cory Hinkle, Carson Kreitzer, Dominic Orlando, Deborah Stein and Victoria Stewart.

“Workhaus seems to have a frighteningly laser-like focus on the coming year. For those who thrill to being in the first audience to see an all-new work, these new plays are like unopened presents under the holiday tree: very promising, full of potential, and for the moment rattling around like tantalizing enigmas.”
