The New Works Festival 2010

 

Fri-Sat, January 22-23 at 8pm
Fri-Sat, January 29-30 at 8pm

Since 2002 The Firehouse Center for the Arts and the New Works Festival have fostered the development of New England writers, directors, and actors.

Providing insight on the play writing process from conception to presentation, this festival allows us to share with the community a rare and special look at the abundant talent that surrounds us.

Submitted plays are judged by an independent panel of theater professionals in blind readings. This year's panel consisted of seven members of the theatrical community.

The 2010 New Works Festival will be showcasing full-length plays as staged readings, and memorized ten-minute plays. Click here to see the list of final selections!

CONGRATULATIONS to James McLindon, winner of the Pestolozzi Award for Best Full Length for his submission, Dead and Buried; to Stephen Faria, winner of the Peter Honegger Award for Best Short for his submission Egg Whites and Miracles; and congratulations to all the finalists.

The New Works Festival Committee wishes to thank all the playwrights who submitted plays this year. Without all of you there would be no New Works Festival.

Directors and Auditions will be announced shortly. Please check this site for updates.

This event is produced by the Firehouse.
