About Truant's New Play Reading Series
Every month, the truant community draws together actors, directors and playwrights to present a new play or several in an open reading. The goal is to establish relationships between theater artists and audiences AND to provide a sense of community and support for the play birthing process.
Truant is about the act of collaboration.
Truant is about the creation of new work.
Truant is about lending aid and comfort to the people slogging in the trenches to make new theater.
The New Play Reading Series is part of our efforts. We look for early versions of works-in-progress from playwrights who are interested in idea that even in the early stages, plays can use a couple of midwives. We put the playwrights in touch with those midwives in the form of directors and actors. This newly formed team holds a public reading of the work so we can add the third part of the experience -- a supportive audience.
The idea (and the ideal) is for something like a Convergence to happen.
