The Blank “Staged” readings offer an exciting opportunity for actors to get in front of working producers and professionals. Actors play characters from original scripts by talented new screenwriters. Not an audition, actors are cast for the night based on email submissions and are notified to come play a part for the readings. As they prepare for the next level of the staging process, we create an ideal environment for the screenwriters to see their words come to life and for actors to apply their craft.
