Soho Repertory Theatre, under the artistic direction of Sarah Benson and executive direction of Cynthia Flowers, has announced the production lineup for its 2014-15 season, which will include the premiere of three new plays.

The season will open with the U.S. premiere of Debbie Tucker Green's generations, running from September 30-October 26. Coproduced by Soho Rep. and The Play Company, the production will feature music by Bongi Duma and will reunite Green with director Leah C. Gardiner, with whom she previously collaborated on her 2011 play Born Bad.

Next will be the New York premiere of Winners and Losers, performed by Canadian theater artists Marcus Youssef and James Long. Directed by Chris Abraham, performances will run from January 2-February 1, 2015.

Anne Washburn will then present her world premiere commission, 10 Out of 12, directed by Les Waters. Performances will run from May-June, 2015.

In March 2015 in Brooklyn, Soho Rep. will also present Washeteria, a site-specific production created by designer Louisa Thompson (Gatz). The pilot project is created with second grade students at Brooklyn Arbor PS 414 and is performed for all-age audiences in a vacant South Williamsburg storefront, transformed into a fantastical laundromat. Artists including César Alvarez (An Octoroon), Charise Castro Smith, and Adrienne Kapstein will be commissioned to make theatrical "episodes," each the length of a wash cycle.
