Critics & Playwrights In It Together—3Girls Theatre Company—San Francisco—Tues July 8 2014
Channel: HowlRound Theatre Commons
Date: 14/08/2014

A significant debate over how to approach new works has energized theatre-makers in the past year. Should critics publish their reviews of new plays with a different standard than time-tested works?  What kind of interaction should playwrights expect to have with critics?  What are critics looking for (and thinking about) when it comes to judging new works? A panel of prominent Bay Area theatre critics—including the San Francisco Chronicle's Rob Hurwitt, SF Examiner/Arts Monthly's Jean Schiffman, and SF Weekly/Theater Bay Area's Lily Janiak—will talk about how they see the issues in an open discussion with our audience of playwrights. Each critic brings a unique perspective to the discussion. Directing traffic for the panel will be 3GT Artistic Director and Resident Playwright, AJ Baker.  


We expect the conversation to  be entertaining, thought-provoking and maybe even a little bit dangerous!
