Brooklyn Storytellers
We support the development of emerging artists in two important ways: through our Spotlight Series and our monthly playwriting group, Playwrights in Process (PIP).
Spotlight Series
Artists are asked to develop their work further with a paid week of development, rehearsals, and a public reading. Interested in developing a Spotlight reading? Contact john@pipertheatre.org
RECENT SPOTLIGHT:
Nolan’s Wake by Patti Veconi
An Irish Catholic family meets together during the wake of their beloved step-mother. This fractured family is exacerbated by a snowstorm, a tragedy, the rupture of long-suppressed scars, a contagion of car problems, and one uninvited cat.
Featuring Donita Beeman, Rory Kelsch, Krisanne Markel, Annie Meek Montgomery, Aaron Novak, Samuel Schell, and Christopher May.
Saturday, February 24th at 7pm at Old Stone House. Free.
Playwrights in Process (PIP)
Are you an actor, writer, or story maker? Join us for this informal and supportive monthly series held at the Old Stone House.
