The Neo-Futurists announce their 20th anniversary shows, holiday break, and New Year’s Eve celebration for Too Much Light Makes The Baby Go Blind. This December, The Neo-Futurists celebrate 20 successful years of Too Much Light Makes The Baby Go Blind (30 plays in 60 minutes) by offering a collection of their best plays. Current and alumni members are eligible to perform, so the audience can see more Neo-Futurists on stage than ever! Then, Too Much Light Makes The Baby Go Blind takes a two-week holiday break (December 15 through 30), returning for a special New Year’s Eve performance on December 31.
