Announcing Modern Works Festival Headliner Production

TEA TIME by Erika MacDonald
Do you love TEA? Do you wish you had more TIME?
Or do you just need a MOMENT?
"Tea TIME invokes hearty laughter and tears in equal measure… The show begins as a simple, silly walkthrough on how to prepare a cup of tea—and believe it when you read that you will laugh. But as the brew continues to flow, MacDonald masterfully guides us through understanding that (this show) is much deeper." - Broadway World

When we created Urbanite, we set out to build a space for bold, contemporary storytelling-plays that spark conversation, stir emotion, and invite us to see one another, and ourselves, more clearly.
​
Thanks to this extraordinary community, Urbanite has become a beacon for courageous artists and adventurous audiences who believe theatre can connect us, challenge us, and deepen our understanding of life.
​
This upcoming season brings stories filled with laughter, heartbreak, hope, and honesty. These works reflect the world we live in and the people we are; messy, complex, resilient, funny, and deeply human. Whether you come to escape, reflect, or simply feel, we hope these productions inspire meaningful conversation and deeper connection.
Thank you for making Urbanite part of Sarasota’s cultural fabric.
WELCOME TO SEASON 13
