'From a show called "The Deepest Play Ever: The Catharsis of Pathos," you'd expect overstatement, and that's what you get with Geoffrey Decas O'Donnell's musical satire...What you don't get is boredom...Talent thrives amid its tattered decadence.' - The New York Times

CollaborationTown is a 501c3, non-profit theatre organization that steps outside individual, traditional roles in order to unify different styles, opinions, emotions, backgrounds and philosophies into cohesive ensemble-driven pieces of theatre. New work is developed by our unique four-tier play development process, CTown's Play Nursery. All artistic and operating decisions are made by a team called the Artistic Core, alumni of Boston University's School of Theatre Arts. Past productions include The Deepest Play Ever : The Catharsis of Pathos (The New Ohio Theater), The Play About My Dad (59E59 Theaters), The Momentum (2012 GLAAD Media Award nominee, 2010 FringeNYC Overall Excellence Award winner), Children at Play (The Living Theater, nominated for two New York Innovative Theatre Awards), Let's Go (Gallery @ The Access Theater), Townville (La MaMa E.T.C.), 6969 (59E59 Theaters; winner of three NYIT Awards: Best Ensemble, Best Featured Actress, and Best Actor), The Deepest Play Ever: The Catharsis of Pathos (FringeNYC Best Playwriting Award, 2006), They're Just Like Us (nominated for four 2006 NYIT Awards including Best Original Full-Length Script and Best Production), The Astronomer's Triangle (nominated for four 2005 NYIT Awards including Best Original Full-Length Script and Best Production), The Trading Floor, This is a Newspaper (FringeNYC 2003 Best Performance Award, 2003), and Dante's Inferno.
