The Dark Room
June 09, 2020
Zoom Meeting opens at 7:15pm (ET), Readings at 7:30pm (ET).
The Dark Room is an "open mic" for playwrights where writers take center stage and their work has a chance to grow. Held on the 2nd Tuesday* of each month, The Dark Room is open to all writers and performers, as well as audience members interested in cold readings of new scripts. Part of CPT's New Play Development programming, The Dark Room provides new and experienced writers the opportunity to test drive their new play, novel, poem, or any other written material in a supportive, yet critical, environment. Playwrights may bring up to 10 pages of material and actors are cast on the spot. Because this event is virtual, playwrights and actors must sign up in advance. See below for details.
*During May and June, The Dark Room will take place on both the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays of the month.
FREE. RSVP to Mindy Herman at herman.mindy@gmail.com to reserve your spot.
