ALERT!- Annual NEW PLAY FESTIVAL 2017!

I must admit it is a bit early to announce the date of the 2nd Annual New Play Festival, HOWEVER, I guess it might be intended to motivate some procrastinating playwrights to start putting pen to paper and to organise their business to have their play considered when the call for plays goes out.

The NEW PLAY FESTIVAL is the only festival where you have NEW playwrights; NEW directors and often times NEW actors on the theater scene. The idea of the festival, it to embrace the innovation of the "newbies", while offering substantial critiques for the further development of their product.

If you require more information please see the FLYER for details.
