NOTEworthy
NOTEworthy
NOTEworthy is Theatre of NOTE’s staged reading series, established to foster relationships with playwrights as they develop new works (with the hopes of producing these pieces on our stage).
We produce a public staged reading of the play and facilitate a post show discussion with the playwright. The playwright has the opportunity to incorporate feedback and revise throughout the process. There is an 8-12 hour rehearsal period with a director and cast.
Submissions
We normally accept NOTEworthy submissions year-round. At present, submissions are on hold due to the Covid-19 crisis.
Recent
In March 2017, we held two NOTEworthy readings of Code of Conduct by award-winning playwright Elizabeth Wong. The play is inspired by real American soldier, Terry Holdbrooks Jr.’s book Traitor, based on his time serving at Guantanamo Bay Detention Center. The reading was directed by Shishir Kurup.
