Announcing the Critic's Circle

The Critic’s Circle consists of twelve artists divided into four teams. The Director of New Play Development will make script cuts/selections after review of submission material assign 'scripts with promise' to Critic's Circle teams. Each script assigned to the Critic’s Circle will be considered for production in July, 2010. The feedback provided will shape and influence the final selection of three scripts (from one youth and two adult playwrights) made by Josh Erichsen, Producing Artistic Director and Jeremy Lewis, Director of New Play Development.

And we are not just doing a staged reading. We are actually producing three full length plays that will each receive three performances. In addition, all playwrights making it to the Critic's Circle will receive feedback.
