NYC Arts: The Complete Guide to Art and Culture

In Transport Group’s 2006-2007 outreach program, co-founder Robyn Hussa created an arts-in-education program called Normal In the Schools (NIS), which brought an educational version of the musical Normal to Wisconsin's Greendale High School. Normal is written by Yvonne Adrian, Tom Kochan and Cheryl Stern and developed by Jack Cummings III. Originally produced by Transport Group in 2005, Normal is based on Yvonne Adrian's true story of her teenage daughter's eating disorder and their family's struggle to find healing and redemption. NIS enjoyed a succesful run and residency at Greendale High School, touching the lives of students, teachers and parents alike.

Transport Group, an OBIE and Drama Desk award- winning theater company, develops and produces work by American playwrights and composers with the aim of exploring the American consciousness in the 20th and 21st centuries. The company is dedicated to both original and existing works as well as both plays and musicals.

Transport Group was co-founded in 2001 by Jack Cummings III and Robyn Hussa as a nonprofit theater company. Its first production was a revival of Thornton Wilder's classic Our Town in February of 2002. By the spring of 2009, Transport Group had produced 12 productions including six musicals and six plays comprised of six revivals and six world premieres.
