A common thread in many of the individual stories Hohman shares about previous artists she has worked with through Rogue is just how many return for future seasons, how many submissions are recurring. This observation alone seems to indicate that maybe she has succeeded in achieving that goal she had from the outset–to create the positive and supportive experience she would have wanted for herself in the world of theater festivals.

When asked what’s next on the horizon for Rogue, Hohman is dreaming big. While every year has been different, with Rogue offering a wide range of services from residence programs to virtual workshops, Hohman wants even more. In an ideal world, she wants to see Rogue transition into a year-long program, culminating in a two-week long presentation, with rented rehearsal space, where Rogue could assist with casting and provide whatever other resources the artists need to present their best work. It’s an ambitious goal, to be sure, but Hohman is no stranger to going rogue, after all.
