Described as the Anti-Billy Elliott, Colossal expresses masculinity through emotional and physical journeys of the performers by integrating the languages of football, disabilities, and dance. The National New Play Network, through its flagship initiative, the Continued Life of New Plays Fund (CLNPF), supports three or more theaters that choose to mount the same new play within a 12-month period. The result is a Rolling World Premiere, in which a playwright develops a new work with multiple creative teams in different communities. The playwright is part of the process, working on the script and making adjustments based on what is learned from each production. Colossal will premiere in 5 theatres across the country in 2014-2015-journeying to Maryland, Minnesota, Texas, Massachusetts, and Louisiana. The Olney Theatre Center for the Arts of Olney, MD produced the first iteration of Colossal. Watch as the creative team describes this epic piece and how they intend to transform the experience in other venues. Written by Ian Weiss See less
