With generous support from The Knight and Wyncote Foundations, we are proud to present our 2nd annual PTC@Play festival, a staged reading series here at the Suzanne Roberts Theatre. Last year, we welcomed such artists as Theresa Rebeck, Jeffrey Hatcher, John Rando, Kirsten Greenidge, and Bill Cain. This year, PTC@Play features brand new plays from five playwrights, as well as a special workshop of a musical-in-development! In addition to the readings, the Festival includes pre and post-reading talkbacks with the artists, panel discussions, and much more. Best of all, it's FREE!
