Industry Weekend 1 Panel - March 25, 2011
In the spirit of the Humana Festival’s celebration of the playwright’s voice, this artist-driven panel is a chance to hear from scribes themselves—a lively discussion shaped through input from writers about the conversations they would like to see galvanize our field. Participants will include representatives of Actors Theatre’s National Playwright Advisory Team, a group of Humana Festival alumni who have provided invaluable insight during the theatre’s artistic leadership transition.
Actors Theatre of Louisville’s seven-member National Playwright Advisory Team is: Jordan Harrison, Naomi Iizuka, Molly Smith Metzler, Allison Moore, Adam Rapp, Steven Sapp, and Deborah Stein.

Hear their manifestos and engage in a dynamic conversation about where we ought to be heading—and how to get there.
