Teen West Project: Year 9 - Impact

 It is officially time to announce that Teen West is soon to get underway!

For those of you who don't know, the Teen West Project is SouthWest StageWorks' signature project.  We collaborate with local theatre company Playwrights West to debut brand new pieces of theatre each year, including pieces that have been nationally published and performed off-Broadway.  It's a powerful theatre experience, and for those of you who were involved with or saw last year's edition, You Cannot Undo This Action, you can speak directly to this powerful work.

This year's edition will take our distance learning situation into account and use this unique situation to create a powerful set of tales based on our experiences in this void.  Impact will be a true collaboration between student artists to create high level work.

Want to know more, how to get involved?  Read more at our blog Teen West Project and join us for a meet and greet with teaching artist Matthew B. Zrebski this Monday, 2/8 at 330pm at this Zoom Link to know more.  

See you there!

It's Finally Here! Announcing the Fall (?!) Film Festival 21/22!

 Playing now on our YouTube channel: It's the Fall Film Festival ...in January!   After a long delay, we are proud to present the films of our Fall Film Festival .  These six shorts, written and produced by (SW)2 student-artists, are the product of hours of hard work and creativity in the face of ever-changing performance guidelines to start the 21/22 school year.  The teams overcame numerous obstacles on the way to these exciting projects.  We hope you enjoy! - jm

A Time-Sensitive, But Awesome Local/National Project!

  So...this was something that came across my email recently: For anyone who is looking to get involved with a real-world, but virtually produced, project to fill their creative niche, this is the one for you!  Top-shelf local directors, a variety of phenomenal local youth and adult talent...it's an awesome opportunity, y'all! But the timeline is short!  I need a committed response by Friday at noon, or it's off the table...and earlier means more choice in what you can do, as we're not the only ones who've been pursued for these opportunities: -Actors: Mel - Hullabaloo; Will - Loaded Language -Line Producers (training by Artists Rep staff included!): Malcolm, Ghost Gun, Loaded Language Links are here to:  SCRIPTS CASTING BREAKDOWNS NATIONAL PROJECT INFO Let me know at mjamie@pps.net if you're interested AND YOU CAN FULLY COMMIT!   (you can also email me if you have any questions...) j.
