Hudson Theatre Works Presents Virtual Festival Of New Plays

New Jersey Theatre Alliance presents Hudson Theatre Works' Virtual Festival. This event is part of the Alliance's Stages Festival.

There is nothing more important to the long-term vitality of American theatre as an art form than the nurturing of new voices. This virtual festival is a way to engage audiences in work by our in house company, the Forge. The Virtual Festival will present readings of new short plays by contemporary, often local playwrights, giving them and the actors involved, an opportunity to share their work in these extraordinary times.

Some of the work that is included is, part of a new musical by Joanne Hoersch and Donald Stark, monologues by Lia Romeo, Luigi Jannuzzi, and Karl Greenberg. Performed by Debbie Bernstein, Kelly McAndrews, Cassandra Giovine, Vincent Sagona, Kevin Cristaldi, Frank Licato and Sue-Ellen Mandell to name a few. The event is produced by Adrian Wattenmaker.
