Hollins Playwrights Festival of New Works

Festival, Staged Reading | July 19 – July 21

On the Waldron Stage

Each summer at the end of July, we present a three-day event showcasing readings of student work from the Playwright’s Lab. This year’s eight readings are being minimally staged for the general public and close to a dozen guest professional responders from all over the globe. On Sunday at 8 PM there will be a panel discussion when our guest respondents will introduce themselves, talk briefly about their own background, and then give a moderated response to the festival as a whole. Get acquainted with these plays and playwrights before they are famous, and engage in a conversation about theatre with our students, faculty, and some established theatre professionals. This event is always free, but due to limited seating, advance tickets are required. Tickets available online beginning June 19 at https://www.brownpapertickets.com (search by play title).

A brief description of the free Playwright’s Lab events hosted at Mill Mountain Theatre follows. All events take place at MMT’s Waldron Stage (20 Church Avenue SE) unless otherwise noted.
