SC New Play Festival 2024

The SC New Play Festival is a city-wide performing arts festival in downtown Greenville, which will occur August 8-11, 2024. During the weekend, new plays and musicals will be presented, and the festival will culminate in a Broadway Cabaret featuring SC-born Phillip Boykin, who is currently Hades in Broadway’s Hadestown. The festival kicks off on Thursday, August 8, with a presentation of The Josh White Project, a new commission by Donnetta Lavinia Grays. On Friday SCNPF will present All the World’s a Stage, a new Adam Gwon musical prior to its Off-Broadway premiere. Saturday features The Dark Lady, a new pop-synth musical that re-examines the dark lady of the sonnets and the origin of Shakespeare’s female characters. And many more events, most of which are free!
