Before Midnight (working title)
book and lyrics by Tanya Barfield
music and lyrics by Clark Suprynowicz
directed by Patricia McGregor
It's 1967. Race riots ignite in America's cities. A charismatic band of revolutionaries throws gas on the fire, hoping a better America will rise from the ashes. A young black man arrives in town to join the movement. An FBI agent is given an assignment he can’t stomach. A swaggering outlaw is surveilled. And every Saturday, a roomful of kids need their pancake breakfast.

Resident playwright Tanya Barfield will work with director Leigh Silverman on an untitled new play.
Creativity Fund offers playwrights the opportunity to workshop new plays or musicals for up to five days.

This Creativity Fund project was made possible by a generous grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.
