Applications Now Open For Art House's Inaugural INKubator Writing Group

For the first time, Art House will be cultivating a group of playwrights as part of the INKubator program's new play development initiative.

Alex Tobey, resident director of the program, will be joined by special guests each month (playwrights, directors, dramaturgs, literary managers) who will moderate conversations focused on peer feedback, guidance, and personalized support for each playwright's individual process.  In the spring, each writer will team up with a professional director to present a public reading or workshop performance as a part of the new annual Jersey City Spring Festival of New Plays.
