Ensemble Theatre Unveils 2019-2020 Studio Series
To augment its mission of presenting shows that often explore compelling social issues, Ensemble Theatre Cincinnati (ETC) unveils the 2019-2020 selections for its newly launched Studio Series to complement its main stage productions and showcase aspiring local playwrights.
The Studio Series presents works by artists and companies across genre and form and are performed typically as readings. Readings play a major role in the development of new work, enabling artists to hear their writing out loud and absorb the audience's reactions. Unless otherwise specified, all performances and/or readings take place in ETC's renovated rehearsal hall.
The 2019-2020 Studio Series includes:
Michael Blankenship's Poe-pourri
