Two years ago we created the Ring Readers’ Club as a way to engage audiences in reading and discussing new plays and to offer valuable feedback to playwrights as they refined their work.  

 

The Club has been expanded into the Ring-Works program.

In step 1 of the program, an original play is sent to Ring-Works members and approximately three weeks later, a discussion with the playwright is conducted via Zoom (Free admission). Shortly thereafter, a staged reading and discussion of the play will occur at the Ring.  

 

This process gives audience members and playwrights the opportunity to read and hear the piece, a very important phase for its development.

With 56 plays submitted at this year’s Ring Toss for only 10 slots in the 2022-2023 season, the selection process was particularly challenging.  Among those not selected, the evaluators identified eight particularly strong plays that would benefit from the Ring-Works process and that would strongly appeal to our audience members. 

 

If you are a theatre lover and wish to be involved in the discussion about the plays over Zoom, please sign up below.

If you are a playwright and you think your work could benefit from a discussion and staged reading, please reach out to ed@playersring.org
