INTRODUCING...


OUR FIRST TWO PROJECTS:

Spring’09: A rehearsed, reader’s theater version of Cherie Bennett’s play SEARCHING FOR DAVID’S HEART. This play was the winner of New Visions/New Voices at the Kennedy Center and was made into an ABC Family Channel movie. It’s on the reading list of many middle schools in the Salt Lake City area. Au­ditions will be held in mid-April. The cast will include teens and adults. All actors will be paid an honorarium. The performance will be in late May.

Summer/Fall’09: A playwriting contest for middle school and high school stu­dents. Students are asked to submit a ten minute play on any one of the Ten Commandments. Submission deadline will be late Sep­tember. The entries will be read by a panel of professors, teach­ers and theater artists. Three runner-up plays will be given re­hearsed readings. The winner will receive a full production and a cash prize of $100. The four plays will make up an evening of theater. Performance will be in late autumn.

We will be giving birth to this exciting new theater project slowly, and on a small scale. We anticipate doing our first full-length production in the spring of 2010.
We welcome any and all who would like to be involved!
