Yale Rep season offers five productions

Yale Repertory Theatre recently announced its 2024–25 season of five productions. The season will open with the world premiere of falcon girls by Hilary Bettis, directed by May Adrales ’06MFA, October 10–November 2. The Philadelphia Theatre Company, Shakespeare Theatre, and Brooklyn Academy of Music production of Macbeth in Stride, created and performed by Whitney White, directed by Taibi Magar and Tyler Dobrowsky, and choreographed by Raja Feather Kelly, will be staged December 5–14. Eden by Steve Carter, directed by Brandon J. Dirden, will play January 16–February 8. Nikolai Gogol’s The Inspector, newly adapted and directed by Yura Kordonsky (faculty), will run March 7–29. The season will conclude with Notes on Killing Seven Oversight, Management and Economic Stability Board Members by Mara Vélez Meléndez, directed by Javier Antonio González, April 25–May 17.

“I am delighted that Yale Rep will return to a season of five productions in the year ahead. The field-leading artists who will be joining us offer a joyful array of aesthetic sensibilities, personal perspectives, and cultural experiences,” said artistic director James Bundy ’95MFA. “The stories they will bring to vivid life for New Haven audiences ask provocative questions about our shared human history as well as our current moment.”
