A workshop for actors,directors, writers, and producers,
showcasing both new material and new performers
We are looking for adventurous types

and to work with full scripts in a public setting.
Each week the workshop seeks to discover and develop projects.
At the center of the workshop is an ongoing reading series
designed to showcase new material and new actors.
Each weeks project is also examined in terms of the nuts and bolts of moving it to the next level.
Whatever that might be. A re write, a re-casting or more re-hearsal.
We are currently planning 2008
We welcome all skill levels.
The intention of the class is to hook up talent with talent
in a supportive, critically positive, environment.
