Community
Welcome to the Beta version of this effort to create a more cohesive LA theatre community through:
A list of all theatres and their involvement in play development
A calendar of all productions and play readings
Networking events such as Speed Dramaturgy and Director/Playwright/Dramaturg
Skills-building programs
This work is sponsored in part by the Literary Managers & Dramaturgs of the Americas (lmda.org).
If you have any corrections/additions/deletions for the calendar or the theatre company list -- or wish to help with this project -- please contact:
Robert Menna, southwest@lmda.org.
