Steep Theatre

Steep will open its new theater with the U.S. Premiere of playwright Simon Stephens' A Slow Fire . The production, which opens January 22, 2027, will be directed by Steep Ensemble Member Robin Witt and continues the company’s long-running relationship with its Tony and Olivier Award-winning Artistic Associate, Stephens. A Slow Fire will mark the company’s much-anticipated return in its new home and a full-production calendar. In A Slow Fire , Ashton and Reece shelter in a converted storage unit in a post-apocalyptic wasteland. They sustain themselves by reenacting moments of hope from their past until forces from the outside world challenge how best to carry hope forward.
