Related Topics: Theatre, Student, Playwright, Workshop

Beginning on April 24, the University of Utah will be hosting readings from student playwrights Daniel Amsel, Alex Coltrin, Haley Pulsipher, Wesley Mathis and Daily Utah Chronicle writer Catherine Heiner as part of the New Play Workshops. These workshops offer an intimate look into what goes into the making of a play while also providing scholarship opportunities for participating theater students.

The sessions will kick off with a reading of Amsel’s “On the Subject of Tinder,” which examines dating culture in social media and how it can be affected by opposing political views. This reading will be directed by Louis Hillegass IV.
