As Johanna sorts through the paintings in her attic\, she uncovers the stories of the little-known women Vincent painted\, which leads her to learn what kind of mother and businesswoman she wishes to be. A story about love\, legacy\, and reinvention. \n\n\n\nJoin the Center for New Work for this rescheduled staged reading from our fall Momentum Festival with City Theatre Company! Launched in 2003\, the Momentum Festival: New Plays at Different Stages is at the heart of City Theatre’s mission to lead the new play development conversation on both a national and local level. It celebrates some of the most exciting playwrights in the country through a weekend of workshops\, readings\, and artist panels. This year\, in collaboration with the CMU Center for New Work\, the festival returned in 2025 to share four new works from both the City Theatre and CMU artistic communities. \n\n\n\nCAST & TEAMOlivia Ruhnke  |  Johanna van Gogh-BongerVon Nishan Markarian  |  Theo van GoghRusty Daniel  |  EnsembleLogan Yao  |  EnsembleJakai-Nyasia Norfleet | EnsembleAce Lillard  |  EnsembleValeria Peterson  |  Stage DirectionsCourtney Vanauken  |  DramaturgElla McCullough  |  Stage ManagerAurelia Clunie  |  DirectorKate Isabel Foley  |  Playwright \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n    \n                    \n                            \n        \n        \n                                        \n                    Kate Isabel Foley is a bisexual playwright\, screenwriter\, and novelist.

Participation is completely voluntary\, and grades are not given.  \n                \n                                \n    \n\n\n\nHOW PLAYGROUND WORKS\n\n\n\nStudents submit proposals to a committee comprised of students and faculty. Proposals range from live performances\, short films\, light shows\, art installations\, murals\, and more. Students often collaborate with other CMU departments such as the School of Music\, the Entertainment and Technology Center (ETC)\, and even students from other universities. Selected pieces rehearse and prepare over a period of four days\, followed by the festival of showings that runs from Thursday through Saturday in and around the Purnell Center for the Arts.  \n\n\n\nPLAYGROUND’S CREATIVE BENEFITS\n\n\n\nStudents who participate in PLAYGROUND reap a number of rewards. It supports risk-taking\, community engagement and belonging\, and empowerment. The School of Drama supports and encourages the students’ diverse artistic interests and creative expansion. Student participation in PLAYGROUND continues to grow with between 65-80 proposals submitted each year. Countless students over the past 20 years have used their experiences in PLAYGROUND as seeds for future professional artistic endeavors.  \n\n\n\n\n  Playground Gallery\n\n  \n    \n              \n

Drama: \n\nJon-Michael Reese’s solo show “By Myself\,” created for Playground in 2009\, has had a continued life as a cabaret in NYC at club cumming and Green Room 42. \nLee Harrington’s piece “Jellybean” received numerous productions between 2015 and 2018 including FringeNYC and an Off-Off-Broadway run.\nSamora la Perdida’s piece “pato\, pato\, maricón!” was produced by Ars Nova’s ANT Fest in 2018.\nWill Reynolds wrote a musical for Playground as a music theater student\,  and since then has gone on to win the ​​Fred Ebb Award for Musical Theatre Writing\, the Kurt Weill Foundation’s Lotte Lenya Award\, and the Dramatists Guild Fellowship for his compositions for new musicals.\nMatthew Gardiner\, a directing alum\, used Playground to explore new works\, and is now Artistic Director of Signature Theatre – a company specializing in new works. \nSFBATCO just celebrated 10 years as a company\, whose founding members first started working together as students in Playground.\nPigPen Theatre Co. formed as a band their freshman year at the School of Drama\, creating and performing their unique brand of musical storytelling in Playground pieces\, and now they are Broadway composers and lyricists (“Water for Elephants”).\n\n                \n                                \n    \n\n\n\n\n\n    \n                    \n                            \n        \n

remembers the “frienzied highs and lows of Playground week.” \n“Working on our sophomore show as a company was an amazing experience that cemented our commitment to each other\,” said bandmate Dan Weschler. “I’ll never forget hanging up a huge strip of canvas across one of our living rooms for a shadow screen\, bathing the room in amber light and making shadow landscapes.” \n                \n
