One Year Lease has created a community of American and international artists who work together on productions performed both in the United States and abroad. These artists are known as the Tenants of One Year Lease. We are also committed to offering these Tenants other production outlets in New York. Brendan Cowell’s Bed, staged in April and May 2007 was the inaugural production of the Tenants of One Year Lease.

This dark comedy explored the best and the very worst of relationships and posed the question: What’s the worst thing you’ve ever done? With Bed, we provided an opportunity for our artists-in-residence to explore work outside OYL’s traditional mission and we look forward building more shows for and with the Tenants of One Year Lease.
