HOUSTON URBAN THEATER SERIES.
Silver House Theatre is specifically seeking women writers of color who are southern based and under the age of 30. If selected for a Staged Reading, playwrights are encouraged to attend at least one other Theater Series event in addition to their own. Encouraging and supporting collaboration and dialogue between playwrights is vital to the mission of the series.
We are accepting only full-length plays at this time. All readings will be staged at the Silver House Theatre, using local directors and professional actors. Three (3) plays will be selected. Playwrights will receive, if their play is chosen, a staged reading with the assistance of a dramaturg.
