Clubbed Thumb commissions, develops and produces funny, strange and provocative new plays by living American writers. Since its founding in 1996, the company has earned five Obies including the Ross Wetzsteon Award for sustained artistic excellence. We have presented plays in every form of development, including over 90 full productions.
The plays vary in style and content, but are always intermission-less, 90 minutes or under, and un-produced in New York City. They feature substantial and challenging roles for both men and women, are questioning, formally inventive, theatrical, and, somewhere in the text, they contain a sense of humor. While our emphasis is emerging artists, we provide a home for artists at all stages of their careers to make unique work and take risks in a safe and well-supported environment.
