A Rolling Virtual Festival
In these strange unprecedented times, our playwrights' work is more important than ever. We can't wait to share these plays with you. Instead of reading one play each day September 23-27, as originally planned, we will be rolling out virtual in-house readings, open to invited guests each week on Saturday at 2pm Pacific from SEPTEMBER 26-OCTOBER 24. To register for any of these in-house readings, contact [email protected].
STAY TUNED! and STAY SAFE!
PANNDORA'S BOX 14th ANNUAL NEW WORKS FESTIVAL
Sep 26 - Oct 24, Saturdays @2pm
The art and craft of playwrighting can be a lonely experience. PANNDORA'S BOX provides playwrights with a forum in which their plays can be heard as they come off the page in readings by experienced actors with experienced direction.
Producing new works is what Panndora does.
NEXT UP FOR PANNDORA ~
IN MY BONES
by Doc Andersen-Bloomfield | directed by Sonja Berggren
with Kea Bird, Craig Johnson, Tiffani Williams, and Karen Wray
Simidele, a West African teenager with an horrendous history, not to mention, attitude, meets/collides with Antonia, a straight-laced professor of Botany with secrets of her own, as they are forced to become room-mates, detainees in the Brideswell Immigration Detention Centre, England. Agassou, a magical panther, who resides in the gigantic Baobab tree over Simi's bed, watches over her, guiding her magical juju gift. "In My Bones" is the story of two very different women’s relationship and their eventual friendship, born out of the need to trust . . . and survive.
COMING TO THE GARAGE THEATRE - SOMETIME!
We are sad to have to postpone our production of this beautiful play, but it will happen. It is our next in theatre show - whenever that can happen. Meanwhile, our cast and crew meet virtually with our playwright to connect and discuss the play. We are planning a virtual workshop in the fall to enhance our exploration of this amazing piece.
Stay tuned! Stay safe and well! Stay hopeful!
