2026 Plays in Progress
2026 Plays in progress
An ongoing series of staged readings, bringing audiences together with emerging local playwrights to share new plays, build connections and engage in conversation. Integrated with our Incubator/Mentor Program, Plays in Progress provide opportunities for playwrights and directors to grow their professional relationships as they collaborate on the development of a new work of theatre.
Audiences are an integral part of making these new works of theatre come to life just by listening, watching, and sharing your thoughts in the critical response sessions following each staged reading

Based on biographical information about the maternal grandmothers of the playwright and her actor collaborators, Carrie Schnelker and Carol Sage-Silverstein.

Damon Pope-Kauhola
Damon says, “ I’ve always had a deep love & respect for storytellers and the worlds that they build, and have sought them out in many different mediums; film, tv, plays, film & tv about plays, video games, etc. I knew I wanted to be one. To be part of the collective human narrative that says “This was us” in one (hopefully many) facet of human expression in acting. I think the fact that a question so deceivingly simple like “Why?” is one you constantly have to ask yourself as an actor & storyteller, and how we all “get there” can vary in soo many ways; blows my mind every time I think about it. My particular path has been somewhat of a winding & wandering one as it has taken me until ~2yrs ago (in my early 30’s) to really embrace the part of myself that always knew that to be true.”

The Accidental Decimation of Our Town by a Deluge of More Than 100 Gimbal Drone Missiles (or: The Accident)
-
May 24, 2026 - 2:00 PM
by Miriam BC Tobin | directed by Aidyn Stevens
Twenty-five years ago, there was a horrible tragedy in a small town in middle America. Today, Hamad is a PhD student who has been obsessed with The Accident since he was a young child. Ignoring all the danger signs, he travels to the town to interview Jane, the sole remaining survivor who has no access to the outside world. They each have only half of the information of what happened that day 25 years ago, and the more they learn from one another, the more they question whose story they're trying to tell.
The Accident is a play about how we--as individuals, as a community, as a whole nation—must start to forget in order to move on ... or maybe it's about how we must never forget in order to let the dead continue living
Content information: Themes of disaster, trauma, mass death, government accidents.

Lisa A. Price (she/they)
Playwright
I am a scientist and physician, who minored in musical theater dance as an undergraduate. That has lent to being a trained observer with a lyrical lens. I write to foster my life, and to affect others so that they may foster their own in a positive way.
My overall goal as a writer is focused on the deconstruction of calamities as well as joy, through examination of the paths which lead to them. In this way, the stories can be used as tools, as we discover ways of interjecting means to enhance joy, or interrupting dysfunction before calamities happen. -
