Summit's 2025-2026 Season!
SUMMIT SEASON 9
We kick off our 25-26 season in partnership with The New Harmony Project for a new play workshop and public reading of HIRAETH by Jayne Deely, part of the second annual PlayFest Indy! In November, is our annual fundraising campaign ELEVATE, and in March of 2026, we will premiere REENTRY, an original one-act about incarceration and our 10th partnership with Dr. Sally Wasmuth. In May of 2026, we open our main production of the season, MS. HOLMES AND MS. WATSON APT 2B by Kate Hamill – the first comedic romp we have ever produced. That’s right, Summit is doing a comedy! And finally, we close out our season with a staged reading of the beautiful and challenging WALDEN by Amy Berryman.
Here is the tea ...
After surviving the pandemic and an equally epic personal crisis, Ms. Joan “not-a-doctor” Watson has run from her problems–all the way to London!--and needs a place to crash. Ms. Sherlock “is-that-even-a-name?” Holmes needs a roomie that she can’t scare away. And long-suffering landlady Mrs. Hudson probably needs some Xanax. Join Summit in May 2026 as we take on our first full-fledged comedic romp with this darkly funny, boldly feminist, madcap escapade.
Summit stands with BLM & BIPOC
Black Lives Matter.
Summit Performance Indianapolis stands with Black Americans and all Indigenous and other People of Color. We detest and denounce racism in all of its explicit and implicit forms. Summit’s values are to increase the representation of our country’s diverse population on and behind the stage, promote equity in the arts, connect with our community, and inspire community-wide dialogue around pertinent social issues, and we will continue our current efforts toward these aims. However, we recognized that we have not done enough, and acknowledge that racism and the horrific legacy of slavery continue to produce devastating consequences. We are seeking literature, education, and calls to action to further our commitment toward this critical cause.
