Meet the Playwright - Audrey Cefaly

Meet the playwright for ALABASTER by Audrey Cefaly, now presented by Shrewd as part of her record-breaking NNPN rolling world premiere.

A message from Audrey

Rudy has assembled an exquisite cast of actors. The depth and range of these women is staggering. They have mined every ounce of humor and light from this play, and compelled me to recalibrate the expansiveness of my characters. It really is extraordinary.
