Cygnet Theatre will continue its Bill and Judy Garrett Finish Line Commission new play festival next month with the opening of Aurin Squire’s “Run/Fire,” in a streaming production that will play Feb. 8 through 14.
Now in its fifth year under the sponsorship of longtime Cygnet donors Bill and Judy Garrett, the new play series usually includes forums, workshops and performances that are open to the public. This is the first time it is being produced virtually.
Each year, three plays are selected for development. One of the plays developed at the 2019 Finish Line festival, Herbert Siguenza’s “Bad Hombres/Good Wives,” went on to receive its world premiere later that year at San Diego Repertory Theatre.
