“Sushi Bar and Other Comedies are totally inspired by true life experiences where joy and seduction are found in the most unusual of places” states playwright Wendy White, “Comedies occur in the funniest places - expect the unexpected at your favorite Sushi Bar, French Café and Chess Game!”

The playwright and director, Wendy White has written over 120 one-act plays and was a resident playwright, curator and director at the Kraine Theater in the East Village of New York City from 1984 to 1992, and at the Expanded Arts Theater Company from 1994 to 2001, in the Lower East Side of New York City. Her off-Broadway productions are the base for her new venue at the New Light Theatre. She recently produced The Jewish Nun to sold-out audiences in Off-Broadway’s 59e59 Theatre and at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in Edinburgh, Scotland.

Wendy White states:  “Thanks to Bridges Aderhold for the invitation to exhibit at the GAB Gallery painting exhibition at the Green Room in April and for the introduction to the talented Miguel Bravo, Green Room Marketing Director a new door is open for New Light Theatre performances! It’s an exciting time.”  

Bridges Aderhold, Gallery Director of GAB Gallery in Wynwood, Miami opened his doors for performances of the New Light Foundation and The Krane in June 2010 and we went forward to perform off-Broadway in New York City; at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in Scotland; in Hollywood, California; consequently the New Light Theatre was born in 2011!

Wendy White would like to thank the wonderfully talented playwright Vanessa Garcia, Artistic Director of Krane, Inc. for all her support in the process of developing Sushi Bar and Other Comedies - In 2010, Garcia, the Founding Artistic Director of Krane, Inc. was named one of Miami's 20 Under 40 by The Miami Herald for her work in theatre.

The dream team includes the fabulous Megan Roth, whose plays and monologues have been produced in Miami and broadcasted online. Her poetry has been published in Opium, POEM, Jellyfish, and several other literary magazines. Her fiction manuscript, Elizabeth, was a finalist in the 2011 Calvino Prize. She has also been a finalist in the James Jones First Novel Contest and the SLS Fiction Prize. Megan currently teaches Creative Writing and Literature at Florida Atlantic University and lives in Hollywood, Florida.

In 2009, the New Light Foundation, Inc. represented the United States as Art Ambassadors by the 1-2-3 Kinderlachen e.V. foundation of Rottenburg, Germany by hosting the international “Global Gallery” project (www.123kinderlachen.org).  During the course of this important project, the “world’s biggest canvas” emerged; painted by children – transcending all borders and conflicts.  

The New Light Foundation, a 501(c)3 non-profit public foundation, has won numerous awards around the globe, has performed everywhere from Amsterdam to Paris; from Miami to Los Angeles to New York City; and has tackled subjects relating to women, love, politics, and Shakespeare.
