People’s Theatre Project
in association with the Morris-Jumel Mansion presents
INSPIRED BY…
A festival of new plays out of Washington Heights
June 21-24
the Morris-Jumel Mansion
65 Jumel Terrace
Part of the Uptown Arts Stroll, this festival of staged readings is a celebration of People’s Theatre Project’s 2011-2012 Resident Playwrights Unit. The writers have worked together over the past 8 months to develop new works inspired by the community of Washington Heights. This festival is an opportunity for the playwrights to share their works-in-progress with the community who may see aspects of their own reality reflected, and see creative, imaginative ways of understanding the meaning of their struggles. Admission to the festival is pay-what-you-can and each performance will be followed by a dialogue with the playwright, director and actors.
