Publishing a book that was a hallmark of what Newmarket Press used to do, Theatre Communications Groups is releasing a standalone edition of Tony Kushner's screenplay for Lincoln. The screenplay is based on Doris Kearns Goodwin's book Team of Rivals, and TCG will be hosting a release party at Chicago's Abraham Lincoln Book Shop on February 15.
The Chicago event will include a virtual component--it will be live-streamed and accessible by those who pre-order the title--and will feature Mr. Kushner along with Lincoln scholar Harold Holzer.
Newmarket, which is known for its print editions of screenplays and movie tie-ins, was acquired by HarperCollins in 2011.
