Thursday marks the kickoff to Marshall University's annual New Works Project, which includes readings of new plays and projects that are in the works.
It's a fun event that I highly recommend - in fact, I got dragged into reading a small part in Saturday night's presentation of Collis P!, which is based on the life of Huntington's founder (I play one of his pals).
But more about that soon - first, let's talk about the first night's event, which starts Thursday at 7 p.m. at the Francis-Booth Experimental Theatre in the Joan C. Edwards Performing Arts Center. (Call 304-696-ARTS for details and reservations. There's no charge to attend, although donations will be gratefully accepted!)
The Student Playwright’s Project will include six short plays:
The Marlboro Man by Chuck Herndon
A Last Supper by Erik Woods
Midnight Princess by Chelsea Sanders
In Progress by Rocky Scarbro
Burgle by Dylan Clark
Count Your Blessings by Jonathan Joy
It's an evening of five new short plays written, directed and performed by Marshall University students. Perennial New Works playwright and Marshall University Theatre Alumni Jonathan Joy will also premiere his new work, Count Your Blessings.
It's always an entertaining evening - and you can't beat the price.
Highly recommended!
