FST's Playwright Collective More Than Doubles in Size

Arts & Culture

Florida Studio Theatre (FST) is proud to announce that its Playwright Collective, a targeted coalition of artists dedicated to developing new work for FST’s stages, is welcoming seven new members. FST’s Playwright Collective has become a key part of the contemporary theatre’s New Play Development program. Since its launch in1983, FST’s New Play Development program has resulted in more than 30 World Premieres and 89 Regional Premiere productions at FST. “We treat each artist as an individual—not some faceless word processor,” said FST Associate Artist Jason Cannon. “The playwright will, at various times, need encouragement, resources, provocative notes, kindness, and deadlines. We must have the courage to invest in them, while releasing our expectations, so that the playwright has the space to surprise and surpass.”
