Public Theatre is looking to cast 5 shows in this series. We are
looking for a diverse group of all adult ages and types.</p><p class="MsoNormal"> </p><p class="MsoNormal">Springboard
features staged readings of new scripts by local writers. The
Springboard series places a special emphasis on developing directors for
new work, nurturing strong relationships between directors and
playwrights, and engaging the audience in the process. Springboard is
NOT actors standing at music stands. This is staged work that conveys
that rare excitement that comes from getting up on stage with little
time to prepare. Audience members give feedback and engage in post-show
discussions to help local playwrights improve their work.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b>When: Sunday August 26, 2012 from 10am-6pm</b><b><span style="font-size:11.0pt;background:yellow"></span></b></p>
