PDX Playwrights
Typically we have about a dozen people at each meeting: playwrights, actors, and friends. Plays are read aloud by whoever’s at the table that night. We encourage you to attend even if you aren’t bringing a play… New readers are always welcome!

Another Festival Within the Festival has wrapped! Thank you to everyone who came out to support local theatre and new plays. You're all a major reason why the Portland theatre community is unmatched.
We also want to say thank you and congratulations to all our featured playwrights! This was easily one of our best lineups yet and we can't wait to see where the plays go from here.
We also want to give a very special shoutout to our admin team and volunteers for making this week possible. And to Chapel Theatre for another incomparable year on their stage.
And don't forget, the Fertile Ground Festival is still going! See new plays across the Portland metro area through this Sunday, April 26. There are so many more playwrights you can support and excellent stories to witness this season!

T-minus 2 days before the magnificent Festival Within the Festival begins, as part of the Fertile Ground Festival!
As you're getting your tickets, be sure to include, "Justice" by Tiffany Esteb.
Sarah is a lawyer at the top of her game. She defends tech companies against those who sue for damages caused from harassment on their sites, all in the name of freedom of speech. Then she is harassed herself, and has to face the world she helped to create. Justice is a solo show that explores the meaning of freedom.
See "Justice" on Friday, April 17 @ 5 pm and Sunday, April 19 @ 12 pm at Chapel Theatre in Milwaukie.
