THEATER THURSDAYS PLAY READING SERIES

The primary mission of Silverthorne Theater Company’s Theater Thursdays Play Reading Series is to support playwrights in the development of new theatrical work. Theater Thursdays often highlight full-length scripts by playwrights local to Western Massachusetts and the greater New England region, with a focus on writers whose voices have been underrepresented in theatrical production. Theater Thursdays provide playwrights with an opportunity to experience their work embodied by skilled actors in a semi-staged reading.

Playwrights also have the opportunity to receive audience feedback through a guided post-show discussion, designed to center the playwright’s questions and needs. We also aim to utilize Theater Thursdays to bring new work to audiences in Western Massachusetts, and to allow them the opportunity to engage constructively and thoughtfully in the process of helping to develop new plays.

Theater Thursdays are offered free of charge before live audiences followed by discussions with the playwrights.

Theater Thursdays are supported in part by our local Cultural Councils, local agencies which are supported by the Mass Cultural Council, a state agency.

Our reading of New Soul is made possible by the generous support of the Greenfield Cultural Council and the West Springfield Arts Council, local agencies which are supported by the Mass Cultural Council, a state agency.
