GENOVEVEVA'S WRITER'S WORKSHOP!!!
Season 5 is happening we are baaaack!!!
Gus and I feel sooo honored to work with all these EXTREMELY talented Playwrights to help them develop their plays and then support them in putting their work in front of an audience. Genoveva Writer's Workshop has been going strong since 2024 and now we are entering our fifth season (which I never imagined we would get this far.) Please see flyer and all info below--it's time to get that play out of your drawer or computer and put it in front of an audience
6 weeks-- starting Tues Oct 14th from 7-9pm, -- cost: $240 please pay in full to reserve your spot.
Playwright sessions on zoom—we read and give you feedback on your work. Actors receive your script in advance so when we meet for our weekly sessions this is not a cold read.
DATES:
10/14
10/21
10/28
11/4
11/11
11/18
Benefits to the Writer:
*We produce a showcase reading of your play-after the six workshop sessions.
*Lifetime access to Genoveva Productions.
*We record the weekly meetings and send back to the writers, so they can relook at this after the workshop session.
*Access to the actors we work with. And--this is not a promise but consideration to be produced by Genoveva Productions in the future.
*For the actors: it's not paid, BUT other playwrights see your acting work which has led to actors booking acting work beyond the writer's workshop.

THE PLAYS:
SISTERS
Deborah and Sophia are strangers and now they find out they are…sisters. Two different people from two different worlds. Will their differences bring them closer or further apart?
COLD FOOD
Valeria is willing to give her father Esteban one more chance to make things right. Their relationship has been estranged for many years--so now, will Esteban throw away this last opportunity?
A WINTER AFFAIR
Nancy and Robert want to give each other a second chance at love, but emotional baggage from the past, may interfere with their new chapter.
CROSSING LIVES
Maggie and Eric run into each other after being divorced for three years. Even though they have each tried to move on with their lives in their own way, this unplanned meeting forces them to tell each other what they should have said long ago.
