AVT presents it’s second playwrights expo on Saturday, July 24th.  Our expos are the intermediate stage of our system to support bringing local original work to the stage in the Antelope Valley.  You can read more about this process on our Playwrights Page.

Please join us from 10am to 12:30pm in the AVT blackbox theatre for staged readings of three scenes and short plays from local writers.  Each staged reading will be followed by commentary and feedback from our directors, techies, and actors.  Fellow writers and the general public are welcome to join in the discussion.

Our playwrights expos are FREE and open to the public.  Our blackbox is built into the garage of a private residence near 65th W. and L-8 in Quartz Hill. Please send us an email at productions@avthespians.org to receive the address as well as parking information.
