Join us for readings of selected works by students and staff of the San Diego Community College District. Participating playwrights were mentored by professional dramaturgs and directors to develop, cast, and rehearse their pieces. An audience feedback session will follow each performance. This event is FREE and OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. Workshop and performances made possible through the partnership of Mesa College, Playwrights Project and San Diego Playwrights.

Bring your journaling to life in this group workshop series for beginning playwrights, ages 55 and up. Playwrights Project Founder Deborah Salzer guides the process. Learn playwriting techniques, as you write short plays depicting moments from your life.
