In light of ongoing developments resulting from the coronavirus (COVID-19) and the national move to delay or cancel large group gatherings as recommnded by the Centers for Disease Control and World Health Organization – and per the administration of the Georgia Institute of Technology – DramaTech will suspend all operations until March 29.  

Additional, we have decided to cancel our production of A NEW BRAIN because of the uncertainty of surrounding the length of the suspended operations.  Ticket holders will receive a full refund.  Please allow 7 -10 business days for refunds to appear on credit card accounts.  If you have any questions, please leave a message at 404-894-3481 or email info@dramatech.org. We apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause.

This decision was not made lightly and we understand the complexities of this situation.  We apologize for any inconvenience, and look forward to welcoming you back soon.

Please check our website and social media for updates and additional information.

Music and Lyrics by William Finn

Book by William Finn and James Lapine

Gordon collapses into his lunch and awakes in the hospital, surrounded by his maritime-enthusiast lover, his mother, a co-worker, the doctor, and the nurses. Reluctantly, he had been composing a song for a children’s television show that features a frog – Mr. Bungee – and the specter of this large green character and the unfinished work haunts him throughout his medical ordeal. What was thought to be a tumor turns out to be something more operable, and Gordon recovers, grateful for a chance to compose the songs he yearns to produce.
