Overview

This work is a celebration of the theatre with portraits of, and interviews with, 45 playwrights. A play comes alive through the efforts of a community - actors, directors, producers, designers - and only in a moment that by its very nature cannot be recorded or repeated, but simply experienced. Like so many other works of art, a living piece of theatre begins with a single idea, envisioned and cultivated in seclusion. It begins with the playwright. Collins and Wishna set out photographing and interviewing dozens of accomplished playwrights in an attempt to capture that beginning - as well as the middle and never-arriving end - of their experience. In Their Company results in a celebration of these 45 gifted artists.
