WAKE by Leon Ingulsrud and Brooke Shilling is a lyrical, theatrical meditation on loss and the maddening beauty of being alive. In a magical kitchen where memory, grief, and absurdity collide, a woman mourning her mother’s death navigates the messy, beautiful, and sometimes hilarious process of letting go—with help from her sibling, a chorus of strange visitors, and the lingering scent of brisket.
WAKE was commissioned by OYL and is set to premiere in New York City in November 2025.

Euripides’
Medea
adapted by Meropi Papastergiou
Location: TBD
Date: TBD
OYL’s production of Medea will feature Akiko Aizawa in the role of Medea, and Georgia Tsangaraki as the head of the chorus. The production examines Medea as a force, speaking to the primal need for revenge in a world out of balance. Here we see Medea as eternal mother, as earth shaker, as prophet, and as destroyer of all we hold holy.
