simple heart (2019-ongoing)

Designed to test fresh ideas, shake up ensemble relationships, and build the company’s repertoire, Simple Heart is a new biannual series from Mocrep. Simple Heart challenges participating collective members to pitch, curate, co-create, and tech a slate of new, 15–25-minute works on a 6–8 week timeline. 

Simple Heart I was presented as part of Steppenwolf Theatre’s Lookout Series in November 2019 and included three new pieces. The series will have new iterations each year.

Is Sex Necessary? by Jenna Lyle, Amanda Bailey, Andrew Tham, and Deidre Huckabay.
