We are thrilled to present our annual Iowa New Play Festival in the Theatre Building, featuring full productions written by MFA playwrights. Plus, there are readings daily from new, full plays written by MFA and undergraduate playwrights.

Join us on Mother’s Day as Audra McDonald—winner of a record-breaking six Tony Awards, two Grammy Awards, and an Emmy, recipient of the National Medal of Arts, and one of Time magazine’s 100 most influential people—returns to the Hancher stage to perform beloved songs from the silver screen.
