Information

The Soho Rep Writer/Director Lab was founded in 1998 to explore and develop the work of a new generation of theater artists, and to foster collaborations between writers and directors in the beginning stages of the creative process.

From October - April, the Lab meets on alternate weeks. Writers agree in advance to bring in work three times during the six-month cycle. At each meeting, Lab members read the plays aloud, with writers and directors serving as actors, then together discuss the work. There is an expectation that each writer and director pair collaborates outside the meetings, at their own discretion.

At the end of the cycle, the plays born from the Lab are presented in a public reading series at Soho Rep.

For more information, contact Writer/Director Lab Co-Chairs, Daniel Manley & Kate E. Ryan, at writerdirector @ sohorep.org.
