Let us know if you get any updates! @Agez: for sure! Our current project is a 10 minute play fest for local playwrights. There's a lot of theatre in SD, but it definitely skews older, so we're doing our best to get younger writers' work out there. If that goes well (and if I'm still in SD by the end of the year haha), our plan is for full productions of original work from all over! tradagram 1

I did not apply here ( I nearly did). I actually contacted them last week because I know they accept late apps until April 1st if spots are open.

eurialo Posted March 3, 2020 Posted March 3, 2020 Nothing from Columbia for me. Nervous (veering toward sad). I don't know if they spread interview requests out over a couple of days, but Columbia was/is my first choice. Only other one I'm waiting on is Boston University. Really starting to think I'm not getting into any this year. Sad. Unsure how to chart forward.

zayzay Posted March 5, 2020 Posted March 5, 2020 I got an interview request for Iowa last night at like 10pm EST (very honored and surprised by the timing) and will be having my interview via phone at noon today.
