The 2015 TRU Voices Play Reading Series

Mondays: June 15, 22, and 29, 2015

All Performances at 7 pm

Theater Resources Unlimited (TRU) presents The 2015 TRU Voices Play Reading Series, the 17th annual series of new plays by TRU writers produced by TRU producers on consecutive Mondays: June 15, 22, and 29, 2015 at 7pm at the SoHo Playhouse, 15 Vandam Street, NYC. The series is followed by the “Dollars and Sense”panels on producing featuring prominent commercial producers, artistic directors and general managers.

 

The purpose of the series is to help develop new plays, help producers, namely, PDMP producers of the TRU Producer Development & Mentorship Program develop the skills needed to produce new works, and foster the producer-writer relationship for future development beyond our series. Each reading will be followed by a wine and cheese reception and “Dollars and Sense” panel discussion with prominent New York producers, general managers and artistic directors focusing on potential venues, marketing and budgeting of the works presented. Attendees will be given an insider’s look at the producing process and the development track for a new play.
