FOREWORD: A New Works Series was born out of our desire to employ artists and create artistic work in our community during a time when live theatre is not an option for many.
On September 1 we put out a nationwide call for submissions of new, original, full-length plays from which we will choose five for virtual developmental workshops. Each workshop will last two weeks - during which time the playwrights will work with a director and a team of artists leading up to a public, virtual, live reading of the work. Read a Q&A with Prologue's Artistic Director, Jason Tamborini, and Associate Artistic Director, Noah Schaefer about why they wanted to launch this project, what excites them about the developmental process, and why it matters in this moment.
Plays will be chosen from the submissions by mid-October 2020 and announced via our website and social media.
Tickets will be available, free of charge with a suggested donation of $10, for each of the workshop readings. Tickets will be available via registration beginning later this fall.
Employing the playwrights and artistic teams for this series depends on the support of Sponsors who share our desire to develop new works and provide an avenue for theatre artists to continue to be paid to practice their craft. We invite you to become a sponsor and join us in supporting this work.
