SkyPilot's Runway is a play reading series that helps to develop new plays in the early drafts stage. The readings are rehearsed, staged, on their feet, script in hand, in partnership with an LA based playwright. After the reading there is a focused feedback session with a moderator, the playwright, and the audience.

SkyPilot's upcoming production, "SkyPilot One Act Festival 2018", includes a dual evening of one-act plays based on the #MeToo Movement, Black Lives Matter and/or March For Our Lives.
