Rising Writers
Rising Writers offers playwrights the opportunity to work with established playwrights from Azuka’s New Pages program as well as occasional staged readings, the possibility of limited edition print books, and even seeing their work produced in one of Azuka’s seasons. Azuka aims to aid in the professional and artistic development of a diverse group of playwrights. By providing professional feedback, a supportive yet challenging artistic community, and networking opportunities, we hope to provide the tools for underrepresented and underfunded artists to make their voices heard.
This program was developed by former Co-Artistic Director Reva Stover.
