Loose Change Productions was founded in 2009 by playwright Carey Lovelace and director Judith Stevens-Ly. The company’s first production was Spiderwoman Theatre’s Red Mother at the renowned La Mama E.T.C. in New York City, a Native retelling of Mother Courage. Next came Couples Counseling, “full of hilarious spins and tragic detours, minor idiosyncrasies and major indiscretions" (Theater Talk), a black comedy directed by Stevens-Ly, was staged at 59E59 Theaters in New York City, before traveling to the 2009 Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
In 2011, Loose Change again joined forces with Spiderwoman Theater, filming Lisa Mayo's searing solo show Among the Living, about aging and the loss of memory. The show is being developed into a documentary, now in post-production, scheduled for release in 2013. In December, 2012, Loose Change just wrapped its latest production, Dipti Mehta's one-person Honour, a searing one-woman show about child prostitutes in Mumbai, again at renowned La MaMa E.T.C.; it featured a “talk-back” with members of AF3IRM, an international feminist organization that addresses issues of sex trafficking.
Loose Change also produces a developmental series that last spring did a staged reading of novelist Janet Sternberg’s multi-character play, The Fifth String.
