The Wooster Group: Nayatt School Redux

One of the world’s most innovative and influential experimental theatre companies that started the incredible change in theatre over the last 50 years comes to The Coronet Theatre: New York’s The Wooster Group.

Nayatt School Redux is a contemporary reworking of Nayatt School, one of The Wooster Group’s most famous productions, created by visionary director Elizabeth LeCompte and autobiographical monologist Spalding Gray. The original Nayatt School launched Gray’s prestigious career.

“In wonderfully bewildering shows, New York’s venerable avant garde theatre company mash together everything from baroque opera to sci-fi B-movies. Their next trick? A seance-style tribute to an old friend.” – The Guardian
