Our 2024 Harvest: 6 new plays and 3 new musicals!
a project of MW Entertainment Group Inc., Mitch Weiss Producing Artistic Director / MWEntGroup@gmail.com
Why The FARM?
A writer's first draft is never the work of art they intended. New original stories need cultivating and time. They may need years of readings and workshops but eventually theater's masterpieces are born.
Since 2019, we've been here for that process, to help writers create new, powerful, commercial, and entertaining content for the future of The Theater!
(our story continues on the next page... and the next page...)
NEXT!
SUBMISSION, a mixed martial arts comedy, BAYA CON DIOS, a play about a family in love with dance, and ALWAYS WILDE, when Oscar Wilde met Walt Whitman. For descriptions see Elevator Speeches page.
