Monday Night Playwright
Monday Night Playwright
Monday Night Playwright began in June 2018 as a place to provide a dedicated space to foster local playwrights and develop new works! These projects are not necessarily reflective of Theatre Three’s artistic vision; however, we want to provide a place for artists to develop their work.
In the 2025-2026 Season one or more of the producers of MNP will attend the Monday Night Playwright readings at the end of the series one show will be selected to have a secondary reading helmed by our Artistic Directors Jeffrey Schmidt and Christie Vela.
Develop Your Work in Our Downstairs Space
Got something that you’ve been working on? Need to hear it out loud? Our new Monday Night Playwright series encourages you to read, rehearse, develop and host staged readings of your new works. We are offering our downstairs Theatre Too space for two days. Day One would be rehearsal and Day Two a reading for an invited audience of your choosing. We would charge $100 for facilities fees and because we are trusting you with our space, we also require two letters of recommendation.
Playwrights Would Have Access To:
- Restrooms
- Green room with attached dressing room
- Music stands and chairs
- House lights for rehearsal
- Basic lights up/lights down light plot for the reading if desired
- T3 will have TABC certified staff member present to sell concessions for reading.
- One social media post about your event from us!
Dramaturgical Bonus Package:
Need an additional eye to give notes before your play goes public? Want assistance contextualizing or defining the world of your play? How about guidance in formatting your work to industry standards, clarifying your intent to actors, or creating conversations about your play in the community? How about a pre-workshop consultation with professional Dramaturg, Haley Nelson? An additional $100 (T3 exclusive) would be charged for this package. Which includes:
- 2 read-throughs of the script
- an hour and half meeting the week before your reading
