The Farm was founded in 2000 by Rebecca Feldman, Artistic Director. It is a collective of writers and performers, including Jay Reiss, Dan Folger, and Sarah Saltzberg. The Farm's interest is in the role of improvisation in creating new work for the theatre. The Farm initially designates a two-week intensive period in which to discover, develop, and rehearse a play from the impulses born mainly out of the pressure of a deadline. Previous projects include "Super" (at Atlantic Theater Studios), "Why I Hate Florida" (workshop at White Wave in DUMBO), and "C-R-E-P-U-S-C-U-L-E" (at the President Company Theatorium in October 2002), on which "The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee" is based. The character and original dialogue of "Beth Marguiles", "Vice President Douglas Panch", "Mr. Barfee", and "Logan Schwarzengrubenierre" were created by Rebecca Feldman, Jay Reiss, Dan Folger, and Sarah Saltzberg, respectively.
