About Women Playwrights Series
The
CSC Women Playwrights Series is dedicated to providing a working forum
for the unique and underserved voice of women writing for the theater today. The Series offers emerging playwrights a chance
to work with professional directors and actors in a short rehearsal period, followed by a staged reading of the work in front
of a live audience, with audience feedback and discussion.
Each presentation features:
- Staged reading of the work
- Lively "talk-backs" with the playwright and cast following the performance
- Refreshments for all
Now celebrating its 20th year, the Series features the finalists in the Centenary Stage Company Susan Glaspell contest, which offers the winner further development support worth $30,000 in a full production on the CSC professional Equity main-stage, as well as a cash payment to the author.
