The Perlberg Festival of New Plays exemplifies one of the core missions of regional theatre: to nurture, develop, and bring to life thoughtful, stimulating, and entertaining new American plays. The festival enables playwrights to hear their words read in front of a live audience as they continue to shape their emerging work. New plays are the future of theatre, and the goal of the festival is to become a leader in fostering the future of the American theatre canon.

This annual event features readings of five developing plays. Each reading is followed by a post-performance discussion in which patrons offer feedback.
