  • Nouveau 47 is dedicated to staging new plays and relevant re-imagined adaptations of well-known plays. We believe in the alchemy of audience and artist, and forging future theatre by developing original and unproduced works. Rooted in the mission of Margo Jones and the Art Nouveau movement, we are devoted to nurturing artists and serving new audiences through plays and events that balance revolution and relevance, tradition and modernity.
