The 2025 Staged Reading Festival returns for its second annual celebration of bold, original storytelling! This year, we’re proud to present nine compelling new works in staged reading format - each selected from an impressive pool of 292 submissions. These pieces stood out for their unique voices, powerful themes, and potential to spark conversation and connection. Organized by the Dorris Staples Theatrical Conservatory apprentices, this festival is a hub for community, diversity, and belonging. Join us in this exciting and new format of our annual festival! Stay tuned for upcoming ticket sales and day-of programming!
