the Final Draft Production Series
Broken Watch Theatre Company will celebrate its tenth season by unveiling its newest and most ambitious project to date: The Final Draft Production Series.
The Final Draft Production Series will serve and support accomplished but not-yet-widely recognized playwrights by bringing them out from the shadow of perpetual readings, workshop and dramaturgical guidance, and into the light of full professional careers in company with an established working dramatist. The selected Final Draft play gets a full production, as well as continuing professional guidance, introductions to agencies, producers, and theatres around the country.
Under the guidance of the project’s chair, Christopher Kyle, Michael Weller and BWTC’s Drew DeCorleto The Final Draft Production Series solicited admired-but-unproduced plays from literary managers around the country—the best plays their theatres aren’t doing. Submissions were received from institutions including the Denver Center, The Goodman, Huntington Theatre, the Playwrights Center in Minneapolis, to name a few. The submissions have been vetted by a selection committee and three of the top submissions have been selected and will be given a public reading. Check back for more details.
