Farkas Hall will host a series of staged readings of plays written by Harvard students and affiliates. The event will culminate in the fifth annual Harvard Playwrights’ Festival. The event will consist of staged readings of eight plays written in an advanced playwriting workshop class taught by playwright Liz Duffy Adams. “This is a great event because it brings together student playwrights through the advanced class and puts them together with professional directors. You get to see stage readings of plays directed by local professionals—it’s a chance to see new, exciting readings of plays that may go on to be performed outside Harvard,” says Joshua R. McTaggart ’13, who is producing the event. McTaggart, who is also a Crimson arts editor, is a student in the class and will have one of his works performed at the Festival.
Madeleine F. Bersin '14, publicity producer for the event, says the festival is a unique chance to see plays under development in a relaxed environment. “It’s really exciting for students to get to show their works, even if in a less finished form. Plays are meant to be seen.”
