BROOKLYN — On Thursday, Feb. 16, 2012 at 8 p.m., at the Old Stone House in Park Slope, Brooklyn Reading Works presents the 2012 edition of “New Plays by Brooklyn Playwrights,” an annual event curated by playwright Rosemary Moore.
New Plays by Brooklyn Playwrights brings together five accomplished playwrights presenting their latest works-in-progress. Here’s your chance to look behind the curtain of the creative process and find out what these artists are up to.
Come to a great selection of staged readings of new plays (and a musical) by Trish Harnetiaux, Marian Fontana and Leah Gray Mitchell, Karen Hartman and Joseph Goodrich.
