More information about Bocking
The New Group produces plays by well-known artists, like Jesse Eisenberg and Hamish Linklater, but also rising ones, as with Preston Crowder, the playwright behind this new comedy. Crowder mentions a dedication to writing stories at the intersection of Black life, queerness, and Southerners in the United States. Crowder has developed this work after being named Playwright-In-Residence with The New Group through the TOW Foundation for its 2024-2025 season. Now, the writer's world premiere will debut this summer.
The new play unites Crowder with a celebrated director, Stevie Walker-Web, a Tony Award-nominated, Obie Award-winning director, playwright, and cultural worker. As Artistic Director of Baltimore Center Stage, his work has also been produced on and off Broadway, including Ain't No Mo' (The Public, and then Broadway) and the upcoming Wanted (on Broadway).
Together, the two bring strong comedic chops to this new sex farce that is sure to rile, rouse, and raise some hell.
