NEW NEIGHBORHOOD. Born out of the Low Brow/Hi Fi 2014 Yale Rep production of These Paper Bullets! and the unintended financial backing of Rupert Murdoch, New Neighborhood is a theatre and television company whose sincerity and authenticity are so combustible, it cannot be housed under one roof for too long without doing severe structural damage. With new work, bruised work, all-singing, all-dancing, foulmouthed musical work, New Neighborhood seeks to harvest the organs of its audience and sell them back to their owners within the time house lights dim and rise, or the DVR records and you delete. New Neighborhood is a particular ordinance of actors, designers, directors, dramaturgs (all the hot D’s!), musicians, graphic novelists, producers, writers, widows, widowers (all the lousy W’s) and bad, browned-on-both-sides balladeers. In the summer of 2015, New Neighborhood produced the world premiere of Suzanne Heathcote’s I Saw My Neighbor on the Train and I Didn’t Even Smile with Berkshire Theatre Festival. www.newneighborhood.net
