Applications are now open for Cycle 5 of the Terrence McNally New Works Incubator!

Applications are open at www.rattlestick.org and will close December 4th, 2026 at 11:59pm (ET), or when 500 applications have been received. Follow the link in our bio for more info!

As a continuation of Terrence McNally’s singular legacy of mentorship, and his commitment to fostering bold new voices in the American theater, the initiative is designed to support ambitious early-career playwrights by giving them time and space to develop their work, professional mentorship with veteran playwrights, and access to the community of artists and work being developed at Rattlestick and Tom Kirdahy Productions.

Each McNally Fellow receives a $10,000 stipend, one-on-one mentorship with a veteran playwright, and a developmental workshop that culminates in a public reading featuring industry-leading professionals.

Each application is thoughtfully reviewed by a broad reader pool of industry professionals. Semi-finalists and finalists are selected through two rounds of consideration. Finalists are granted an interview with a selection panel, including representatives from Rattlestick and Tom Kirdahy Productions. In consultation with the Playwrights Advisory Council, three playwrights will be awarded the Fellowship in spring 2027. by @rattlestickny

We are thrilled to announce our 2026/2027 Directing Fellow Andreas Andreou. Congratulations Andreas and welcome to Rattlestick!

Andreas graduated from King’s College London, the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, and the David Geffen School of Drama at Yale, where he was awarded the Julian Milton Kaufman Memorial Prize for Directing. His directing work, showcased in several countries, includes the English-language premieres of Utopia by Mikhail Durnenkov and Apologiae 4 & 5 by Academy Award Nominee Efthimis Filippou; the Romanian premiere of Far Away by Caryl Churchill, and the Greek-language premiere of An Oak Tree by Tim Crouch. In 2022, Andreas wrote and directed his first short film, By Heart, adapted from the stage play D.D.D. by Dimitris Dimitriadis. While at Yale, he also directed Shakespeare’s The Tragedy of Coriolanus, Caryl Churchill’s Lovesick, and new works by Emily Breeze, Matthew Chong, and Andrew Rincón. His own plays, My Death Etc. and M.A.Z.I., have represented the National Theatre of Greece internationally under the auspices of the Union des Théâtres de l’Europe (UTE).

Between 2017 and 2020, Andreas worked on several projects with the German theatre group Rimini Protokoll at major European institutions, including Haus der Kulturen der Welt, GRIPS-Theatre Berlin, Onassis Stegi, Staatsschauspiel Dresden, Düsseldorfer Schauspielhaus, Residenztheater München, and Schauspielhaus Zürich. In 2023, he collaborated with Robert Wilson on his productions of Edward Albee’s Three Tall Women and Jarry/Miró’s UBU at the Municipal Theatre of Piraeus and The Watermill Center, respectively. He also served as The Watermill Center Summer Program Assistant that same year.

In and out of school, Andreas has attended directing seminars with Dima Krymov, Thomas Ostermeier, Vassilis Papavassiliou, Ian Rickson, Lyndsey Turner, et.al. He has also trained under Theodoros Terzopoulos and Savvas Stroumpos in the internationally recognized, intensely physical method of the Attis Theatre. by @rattlestickny

I got to tour the iconic @rattlestickny Theatre in the Village yesterday. We walked through the construction site and spoke about the plans for this space. We are hoping for an Autumn open!

Supporting our arts and cultural institutions is one of my top priorities. They are the heart of District 3 and help make New York City the arts and cultural capital of the world. I cannot wait to see Rattlestick welcome audiences back through its doors. taken in West Village by @rattlestickny
