Scriptwriters/Houston to Present Annual 10x10 Showcase This Month

Houston based Scriptwriters/Houston is thrilled to once again present its annual 10x10 Showcase! The organization is now in its 26th year and going stronger than ever as they present 10 brand new plays for you to enjoy.

This event, a yearly staple of Houston theatre will bring together many playwrights, directors, and actors from all over the Houston area to perform ten plays, each of which is only ten minutes in length (so you can totally say you saw at least ten shows this year!).

Jones directed by Dabrina Sandifier, My Name is Joel Goldfarb by Jeffry Strausser directed by Steve Carpentier, Last Dance by John Meiners, Jr. directed by Lauren Tunnell, Taking a Second Look by Carl Williams directed by Erica Chmielewski, Dolly at the Soiree by Fernando Dovalina directed by Rachel Dickson, Erie Fire by Rachel Dickson directed by Errol Anthony Wilks, Mrs. Opal by Michelle R. Taylor directed by Kelvin Douglas, Teacher of the Year by Stephen Stewart directed by Callina Situka and 2B or Nah 2B: Sexting Hamlet by Donna Latham directed by Amy Pope.
