Theater production organizations NewYorkRep and the Telling Company have joined forces under the banner of NewYorkRep.

Under the leadership of producing artistic director Markus Potter and executive director Gayle Damiano Waxenberg, NewYorkRep produces new plays and musicals that inspire and compel social change by telling stories that expose the travesty and beauty of our humanity. By illuminating social and ethical questions through art, NewYorkRep strives to create provocative theater that promotes empathy, compassion, and inclusion.

The newly merged NewYorkRep launches with three productions, the off-Broadway run of Church & State, A Wall Apart at the 2017 New York Musical Festival, and Less Than 50%, opening off-Broadway in 2018.
