VIOLENT. LUSTY. STRAIGHT FROM THE GUT.
The Bastard (Theatre) was founded in 2012 by Christopher Johnson after leaving his five-year post as Artistic Director of Etcetera, the late-night arm of Live Theatre Workshop, with the intention of continuing the work Etcetera was presenting under Johnson as Artistic Director -- new and contemporary plays by, for, with and about Americans in their twenties and thirties. The Bastard is interested in theatre that explores what young people are doing right now to understand themselves and their lives, and what happens when they don’t, can’t, won’t or are prevented from doing so.
The Bastard's creed is "VIOLENT. LUSTY. STRAIGHT FROM THE GUT." This creed wholly signifies The Bastard's artistic aesthetic from play selection to acting style to the experience of being in the audience of a Bastard production. HEDWIG is only the beginning...

The Bastard (Theatre) presents it's second production, THE ALTRUISTS, in which a group of radical social activists learn the hard way that “fire bombs don’t grow on trees.” This furiously fast-paced black comedy by Nicky Silver locks horns with extreme liberalism like only an extremely liberal playwright could.
"Hilarious…the extravagantly amusing Nicky Silver has written one of his most consistent explosions of dark yet good-natured satire…we are carried aloft on the demented joy of [his] hyperarticulate imagination." —NY Newsday.
