In 1966, under Dean Robert Brustein, the Yale Repertory Theater was shaped to build up further ties between the expert and scholastic groups. Lloyd Richards, dignitary and aesthetic chief from 1979 to 1991, expanded the theater's accentuation on new plays, debuting works by Athol Fugard, Lee Blessing, and August Wilson. Richards' successor as senior member and masterful executive, Stan Wojewodski, Jr. kept on accentuating the creation of new plays, including a few imperative works by Suzan-Lori Parks and Theater de la Jeune Lune. The ebb and flow senior member/masterful chief, James Bundy, has created striking debuts by David Rabe, Jose Rivera, David Adjmi, and Sarah Ruhl, among others, and also Radio Golf, the tenth play in August Wilson's twentieth century cycle.
