For over three decades, the Contemporary American Theater Festival has been producing and developing new American theater. Throughout its rich history, CATF has contributed significantly to the American theater landscape. This year, CATF is recommitting itself to its mission and telling stories with purpose – stories that provoke, stories that ignite, and stories that inspire action.

Join CATF on March 26 in Shepherdstown, or April 1 in Washington DC, to hear readings from the five world premieres of the 2025 Season and celebrate the diverse American experience.
