The Blank Theatre Launches Indiegogo Campaign To Benefit The Living Room Series
The Blank Theatre, a 501(c)(3) non-profit arts organization, has announced an IndieGoGo campaign to raise funds for the theatre's critically acclaimed Living Room Series.
Now in its 28th year, The Living Room Series (LRS) is a new play development program that embodies The Blank's commitment to developing new work by diverse voices from both established and emerging writers. Submissions by women, playwrights of color, and other under-represented voices are strongly encouraged. The Blank is firmly committed to supporting gender parity and diversity. The Living Room Series takes place on Monday evenings at the 2nd Stage Theatre in Hollywood between Labor Day and Memorial Day (complete schedule available at http://www.theblank.com/livingroomseries/). LRS offers a week-long rehearsal process for the playwright, director, and actors to explore and refine the play before presenting it to an audience. The performances are minimally staged, with actors carrying scripts, and are a wonderful opportunity for the playwright to get a sense of the play's full potential.
Started in 1990 by Founding Artistic Director Daniel Henning, The Blank Theatre consistently offers some of the highest quality and entertaining productions in the area. In its 28-year history, The Blank has won hundreds of awards including every major award in Los Angeles for Outstanding Production (LA Drama Critics Circle, Ovation, LA Weekly, NAACP, and Back Stage Garlands). The Blank has been at the forefront of providing high quality productions with a risk-taking sensibility and entertaining experiences. With programs such as its annual nationwide Young Playwrights Festival, The Blank Theatre is committed to developing excellence in artistic talent and providing the opportunity for artists to take bold risks.
