Erik Ehn

Erik Ehn is an American playwright, director, educator and theorist of contemporary theater. Currently Head of Playwriting and professor of Theatre Arts Performance Studies at Brown University.

”I believe strongly that the world needs to change radically in the next few years, and that theater will be a part of that change. I can feel it like a person with a broken leg can feel the rain coming, that this need for coalescing is in the air. Whatever causes that coalescence is going to be what we call theater next.” -Erik Ehn in a Times interview in 2006
