Organization Summary
Mainstage Productions—new plays by emerging and veteran Los Angeles-based playwrights with diverse casts.
The NEW PAGES LAB is a public reading series of new works by local playwrights. The goal is to give audiences opportunities to be a part of the process of developing new works through post-reading conversations.
ANDREA COCKRUM THEATER FOR STUDENTS began as a weekend program for low-income students of New Designs Charter School that engages them in playwriting, acting, directing, designing and stage managing, but it will expand when Playwrights’ Arena begins its residency at New Designs Charter School in 2018.
