PlayGround has announced the thirty-six playwrights
selected for the 2016-17 PlayGround Writers Pool and the twelve alumni selected
for the 2016-17 Resident Playwrights Program. Over the next six months, the
Writers Pool will generate more than 180 original short plays inspired by
monthly prompts as part of the Monday Night PlayGround staged reading series
performing at Berkeley Repertory Theatre. The top six plays each month will
receive professional script-in-hand staged readings led by leading Bay Area
directors and actors. At the conclusion of the season, the best works will receive
full production as part of the annual Best of PlayGround, now going on its
twenty-first year. Through the Resident Playwrights Program, PlayGround will
support the development of more than a dozen new full-length works, including
six new or ongoing commissions. Four plays competitively selected from among
these works and other alumni submissions will receive two-week developmental
workshops and public staged readings as part of the annual PlayGround Festivalof New Works at Thick House Theater next May.
PlayGround officially kicked off its 23rd season
on Monday, September 19th, with a special Monday Night PlayGround “Alumni
Night” featuring six short plays around the topic of “The Potrero Nuevo (New
Pasture) Project” which focused on investigating the rich and complex history, present
and future of Potrero Hill, where PlayGround now operates the 80-seat Thick
House Theater. Those works are now undergoing further development and will
premiere as part of a fully-produced evening-length program at the
soon-to-be-renovated and renamed Thick House in January 2017.
The next Monday Night PlayGround is Monday,
October 17 at Berkeley Rep, with six plays on an environmental topic to be announced,
as part of the third annual Planet Earth New Play Festival. The remaining Monday
Night dates are: November 21 (“Musical Theatre Night”), December 19 (“Holiday
Extravaganza”), January 16 (“S.T.E.M. Night”), February 20 (“Social Justice
Night” in partnership with Lorraine Hansberry Theatre and San Francisco Mime
Troupe), and March 20 (“Women’s Arts Night”). Tickets are on sale for all
