It is important to submit 4, or even better5 choices, so that we may end up with a balanced, exciting season. * Due to the cost of production Workshop Players would do no more than one musical in a season, therefore if submitting musicals also include some straight plays to increase your chance of being chosen to direct.

Of utmost importance is that you have a desire and a vision to direct the plays you submit. That is why we approach selecting our season in this manner instead of choosing plays, then working to find directors. The list is included incase you need inspiration. Also check out our website at workshopplayers.org for a list of plays that have been presented for the past 75 years. Thank you for considering submitting an application. Pat Price Play Reading Committee Chair -- *I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes.
