April 04, 2007
Story Continued...
The Actors Studio Playwrights/Directors West Coast Unit has openings for a limited number of experienced, professional playwrights.
The 90 member group meets on Monday nights at the Greenway Court Theatre in West Hollywood . Each week a playwright presents a one hour directed reading of a new play performed by Actors Studio actors. Following the presentation, Mark Rydell and Lyle Kessler moderate an in-depth discussion with the playwright, director, and the members of the Unit.
The purpose of the Unit is to provide talented, working writers with an inspired setting, within which significant new plays are regularly created and developed.
Admission to the Playwrights/Directors Unit is through submission only. Please send a cover letter with resume and two copies of a full-length play (NO SCREENPLAYS) to:
