On Saturday, October 24th at 7:30pm THIS IS THE SUBTEXT will be presented as part of Centre Stage’s 24th Annual New Play Festival.

Each year Centre Stage selects three finalist plays to be presented to their audience and then selects a winner to be fully produced in the following season.

About THIS IS THE SUBTEXT:

A fledgling playwright finds themself in the liminal space between success and failure as they start a podcast interviewing masters of the craft. What they learn, however, is success is both amorphous and elusive. Theatre doors swing open wide for the podcast but remain closed for their playwriting. The playwright/podcaster finds themself at a precipice, pondering the end to interviewing, when the wise words from a playwriting hero and an email from a stranger changes everything.

THIS IS THE SUBTEXT was commissioned by Semele Projects in Los Angeles; Matthew McCray, Producing Artistic Director.
