Maybe your girlfriend’s parents are crazy.

The Spring Fling is made possible in part with public funds from the Manhattan Community Arts Fund, supported by the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs and administered by Lower Manhattan Cultural Council.

“The Spring Fling,” a collection of one-act plays to be presented in April -May 2011 in the 3B Development Series at IRT, is a co-production between F*It Club, led by Executive Director Allyson Morgan, and MSK Productions, led by Executive Director Mara Kassin.

F*It Club, comprised of an up-and-coming group of actors, writers, directors, and producers, was founded with the goal to provide community, access and opportunity to those who have been unable to successfully navigate the “system” due to lack of funding or positioning. We say “f*it” to waiting for opportunity to knock. We are seizing opportunity and making it ours.

MSK Productions is committed to presenting new work by emerging playwrights, such as the critically acclaimed New York premiere of Brooke Berman’s “Until We Find Each Other,” in June 2010, where Allyson Morgan and Mara Kassin met and discovered their similar producing aesthetics and goals.

The concept is simple: to present one-act plays about relationships in New York by up-and-coming New York playwrights, set in a non-traditional, flexible theatre space. The goal is that by producing a piece about a bar actually at a bar, or a piece set in an office in an real office space, we can make these authors’ work more immediate, accessible, and surprising, and provide an innovative and memorable theatre-going experience that will attract a generation of audience members in New York that is generally underrepresented (20-30 somethings).
