Introducing...Playwrights West
On Sunday, January 31, 2010, Playwrights West presented Introducing…Playwrights West, a reading of members' short works reflecting their unique sensibilities and styles. The evening will also feature the announcement of our first author and play scheduled for full production.
Directed by Playwrights West member Ellen Margolis, Introducing… was a terrific success, playing to a sold-out house at Portland's CoHo Theatre. More Playwrights West events are on tap for summer 2010.
In addition to Playwrights West's inaugural January reading, the collective's first year will be dedicated to developing ties to Portland's theatergoers and local theatre companies, establishing professional business operations, and developing our first, fully staged production in 2011 through workshops and public readings. Eventually, Playwrights West may include workshops for non-member playwrights, playwriting seminars, internships for beginning playwrights, or other forms of outreach to foster play development.
