The inaugural cohort of KDC Theatre’s New Writing Group is excited to welcome you to this evening of rehearsed readings that celebrate all manner of creations and experimentations. We hope you will be surprised and entertained by these new plays written by the next generation of playwrights – you are the very first to hear them!
There’s no telling how this will turn out, because when it hits the air, it’s an entirely different story.
This show will run without an interval.
