Working the Scene in Colour: Call for Submissions

Working the Scene in Colour is a live, scene reading series bringing together writers and actors who identify as Indigenous and People of Colour.

While playwrights everywhere struggle and juggle their chosen careers, women playwrights in countries such as India, Afghanistan, and South Africa ­have obstacles much bigger than ours in Canada.  In many countries, theatre is a vital tool to advocate for change, and it is important that women’s voices are heard.

Call for Papers

Prizes and snacks. $10 or PWYC. Hosted by Georgia Wilder. Two awesome features:

With Buddies in Bad Times and Pride Toronto.
