October 18th, join us for a staged reading of Katharine and Petruchio, a reworking of William Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew written by British playwright and actor David Garrick, right here in this space. December brings a staged reading of The Shabbos List, by Lisa Winkler, at the Drama League. And, in 2015, we’ll likely be presenting a staged reading of The Show Shop, a 1919 Broadway comedy by James Forbes from back in 1919, as well as the next edition of our popular playwriting festival (we have over 100 submissions so far!). If interested in participating (acting or directing in The Show Shop or the play festival), please submit resumes to casting@pineyforkpress.com.
