WE ARE LOOKING FOR YOU! - Call for Creatives: Playwrights’ Workshop
Richey Suncoast Theatre is launching a dynamic new Playwrights’ Workshop, and we need more than just writers. We are building a creative engine, and we want actors and directors to be part of the foundation.
​
This is your backstage pass to the raw creative process. Whether you are a seasoned storyteller or just starting out, this is your chance to:
​
Develop original plays in a supportive, hands-on environment.
Collaborate across disciplines to bring scripts from the page to the stage.
Sharpen cold-reading and performance skills through live workshopping.
Produce—contribute to a one-act festival premiering August 2026!
​
The Mission
This isn't a lecture; it's a lab. We connect playwrights with the actors and directors who will eventually breathe life into their work. Our goal is a collaborative development cycle that culminates in a high-energy festival of original one-act plays.
​
Key Highlights
Hands-on Script Development: Real-time feedback and evolution.
Skill Building: Directing and acting exercises focused on new works.
Creative Community: A network of local artists dedicated to new stories.
