​
We are excited to announce this year's festival lineup
of Utah playwrights and directors!
​
Sixty-eight scripts were submitted (thank you, playwrights of Utah!),
and passed through a rigorous selection process (thank you, jury!).
17 of these have been chosen for our first annual festival—
seven as staged readings and ten as full productions.
​
Congratulations to the playwrights whose work will be performed
in this year's New Works Ten, and thank you to our stellar directors
for stepping up to bring these stories to life for our audiences.
