Member Open Play is a community-building opportunity for Playwrights’ Center members at all experience levels to support each other through script sharing and feedback. The Center does not hire actors, directors, or dramaturgs for these informal feedback gatherings. Instead, it is a time for writers—and other theatre artists interested in playwriting—to come together to read, share, and discuss each other’s newest script pages. Each session is dedicated to one PWC member to have their full-length, one-act, or short play read. Members must attend at least one Member Open Play a year for their script to be included that season.

Attendance is open to anyone, but only members may have their plays read.

When we meet: twice a month on Mondays 6-8 pm CT 

Where we meet: Virtually via Zoom

Currently, we are reviewing the script submission process for this program. We will be opening for future submissions later this summer.

Please contact Membership Programs Associate, Alayna Barnes, alaynab@pwcenter.org or (612) 332-7481 x1110 with any questions about this program.
