?!:New Works (‘?!’ is pronounced ‘Interrobang’) is a yearly, multi-week festival of new works in all mediums featuring all your most brilliant/disastrous ideas! It’s a performance party, a showcase of new ideas and big risks, a festival, and an opportunity to become part of the Brick’s artistic community.

Artists will present a piece between 1 and 20 minutes long on a split bill. No split bill is the same, but each bill includes four to five different pieces. Each piece has 2 performances during the festival.

Performances for ?!: New Works will take place in April 2026.

Curated by the ?!:New Works 2026 Curation Team.

Submissions are now closed for ?!:New Works 2026. Check back in the fall for 2027 info and applications.

?!:New Works is made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature.
