KLECKSOGRAPHY 2026

August 29, 2026

More than 30 DC-based theatre artists come together to create six fresh new 10-minute plays in just 10 days. All six plays are inspired by a single piece of visual art (public art on the grounds of The Stacks at Buzzard Point).

This annual project commissions artists to create plays over 10 days and focuses on providing creative challenges, visibility, and networking opportunities to emerging artists. The name “Klecksography” comes from a game played by Hermann Rorschach as a child that involved making shapes out of ink on a blank page. Inspired by this game he would go on to develop his famous psychological test, the Rorschach Inkblot Test.

“Oh, but when it is high, the pleasure level of this production is sky high and it never is less than interesting as it works its way through a modern writer’s speculations on the mysteries surrounding the short life and violent death of the man who may have passed on the concept of the history play to Shakespeare who gave us all those Henrys and Richards. Bringing the swashbuckling adventurer to lusty life is Adam Jonas Segaller, who makes his Potomac Region debut in a most memorable way, bursting on stage stark naked and dripping wet, swinging from a rope fresh from a dip in the foul, fetid Thames. ”
