The Graduate Playwright Gallery Series serves plays written by 2nd year MFA playwrights that are ready for a workshop production with a limited budget. For the play to be considered, a complete script must be submitted by April 1. Script changes throughout the process are encouraged, and the play may be presented memorized or book-in-hand, depending on the number of revisions required. Gallery productions are normally performed in MacVey Theatre, receive 3 weeks of rehearsal including the performance week, and have access to the costume, scenic, and props shops. They may use the rep light plot and media projection. These projects are directed by advanced undergraduates, graduate directors, or faculty.

The Obituary

While volunteering at a hospice ward, a high school senior in Singapore was asked to write an obituary. The obituary unraveled the untold story of a diasporic family and led the 18-year-old to reimagine her “American Dream.” This is a memory play, or, an obituary itself.
