Old Pueblo Playwrights cordially invite you to attend their Weekly Zoom meeting Monday, August 28, 2023 beginning at 7 pm.  This will be a Zoom only meeting. (Zoom link below)

 

NO PLAY READING IS SCHEDULED  

 

THIS IS A SPECIAL "PLAYWRIGHTS MEETING DIRECTORS" MEEITING

 

Seasoned directors and novices alike are invited to meet and greet our playwrights who have plays voted eligible for inclusion in our next New Play Festival April 2-7 2024. 

 

Playwrights with plays voted eligible for inclusion in our next New Play Festival will deliver an "elevator pitch" about their play including the nature of characters needing to be cast.  Some plays already have directors selected.  

 

Directors attending will have an opportunity to deliver a brief bio about themselves, their experience directing and their availability. 

 

The next New Play Festival is scheduled for April 2-7 2024 at St Francis in the Foothills MCC. A minimum of five new full length plays will be presented during the festival. More likely, the festival will include full length and short plays too, the mix to be announced. 



Attached is a list of individuals who have indicated a desire to direct or who have directed for us before.  The list is not complete.  You may be added to the list by replying to this email or by attending the meeting tomorrow. 



Looking forward to seeing you all there.
