The Signature Theater Initiative will develop and stage new works by these writers, to help them establish themselves...
Annie Baker, Kenneth Lonergan, Katori Hall, Regina Taylor, and Will Eno.
Ahem. Let me rephrase. The Signature Theater will pay for and produce plays written by the successful and terrific playwrights known as...
Annie Baker, Kenneth Longergan, Katori Hall, Regina Taylor and Will Eno.
Anyway, at least we'll get new plays from kick-ass writers. I just wish theaters would stop helping playwrights so much and just produce them. (It's sort of like giving Tony Kushner money or something.)

Signature is producing them, no?
To clarify: they're producing them, but it's sort of the language being used. It's a program to help establish these playwrights, so to speak.
Establish these playwrights? Jesus Christ. That's like establishing Steven Spielberg.
