Festival Guest Roundtable
Again this summer, due to ongoing pandemic restrictions, the 2021 Hollins Playwrights Festival readings will be presented live online via Zoom (all times Eastern). All readings are free and open to the public. But tickets will be limited.
Going back to 2009, we have been presenting original work by our students in front of a live audience comprised of other students, local audiences, and guest respondents from around the country. On Sunday, after the final staged reading, we provide an opportunity for each of the guest respondents to introduce themselves, talk a little bit about their own work, and reflect on their observations of the weekend as a whole. There may be a chance for the public to ask questions or give their own feedback on the event, but the focus will be the perspective of our guests on new play development, partnerships between academic and professional theatres, and current trends in approaches to new work rather than further feedback on individual readings from the Festival.
2021 GUEST RESPONDENTS:
Jessica Angleskhan, Megan Carney, Tessa Carr, Jonathan G Galvez, Ayesha Hawkins,
Leonela Hernandez, Anne G. Morgan, Daniel Singh, Dominic Taylor, Dwayne Yancey
About the Festival:
Each summer at the end of July, we present a three-day event showcasing readings of student work from the Playwrights Lab. Normally, these eight readings are minimally staged at Mill Mountain Theatre's Waldron Stage for the general public and close to a dozen guest professional responders from all over the globe.
ONLINE TICKET SALES WILL END 30 MINUTES BEFORE THE EVENT START TIME.
After making your reservation, you will get an email with a confirmation of your request, but it won't include the Zoom link or event instructions. YOU WILL GET AN EMAIL ABOUT AN HOUR BEFORE THE EVENT WITH THE LINK TO THE PERFORMANCE and any additional directions specific to the event.
You can join the event up to 15 minutes before the start time. Running time is approximately 90 minutes. with a short Q&A to follow. DON'T LIVE ON THE EAST COAST? PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU CHECK THE TIME DIFFERENCE!
