Untitled Theatre Company #61 presented a comprehensive festival of all the works of Eugène Ionesco. It was an unprecedented festival for one of the greatest playwrights of the last century, an icon of the Theater of the Absurd. Not only did we have productions of every play he has written in our festival, we also had an accompanying film festival at Anthology Film Archives, seminars, readings, and our unique Shorts Program of rotating one-act curtain raisers. The Festival happened throughout New York City, with the participation of over thirty other theater companies and institutions, at a dozen different Venues.
