In response to COVID-19, Poetic Open Sessions, which was previously held at the Artist Co-Op, will now be held virtually over Zoom until further notice.
Poetic Open Sessions is a monthly artist community gathering and sharing series focused on engaging with and embracing bold new works across the genre of poetic theater. The series is designed to welcome the diverse voices of the larger poetic theater community by highlighting both renowned artists as well as those new to the scene together in a celebration of storytelling in a wide range of forms..
We’re currently seeking submissions of new works in any stage of the development process. Works of all disciplines and styles are encouraged, with a particular focus on works that explore the intersection of poetic language and performance. Our monthly sessions include solo poetry sets of up to 10 minutes and short plays/play excerpts of up to 15 minutes. If you are submitting a full-length work, feel free to submit the full script and be sure to indicate which section you are selecting to present for this series.
