SPF

If you spent the beginning of the summer stuck in the Public Theater’s virtual line for Twelfth Night (has anyone actually gotten tickets this way?) instead of sucking it up and waiting in the physical line all day you have now, like me, arrived at the end of the run without seeing it. And because I’m not about to camp out in Central Park overnight, which is apparently what one must do at this point, I’m turning to SPF.

Hosted by the Public, SPF produces new work by emerging playwrights. These are full productions, not staged readings, put on at no cost to the writers. What’s more, they accept unsolicited submissions and even help place the writers into the greater theater community. SPF puts on an intense month of theater-going, with two different plays a night almost every night until August 2nd. And no messy lines, virtual or otherwise. You can reserve your seat for a measly $10 from the comfort of your very own home.

Now playing, Reborning by Zayd Dohrn, directed by Kip Fagan, with Ally Sheedy and The Chimes by Kevin Christopher Snipes, directed by Adam Immerwahr with Graeme Malcolm (Equus). For the rest of the festival line up, go here.
