BPT @ AWP: photographic evidence

 

Here are a few of the BPT superstars – Melinda Lopez, Steven Barkhimer, and Lydia Diamond – who were part of the “Playwright as Actor/Actor as Playwright” panel at AWP yesterday. The panel also included John Kuntz and Kate Snodgrass. Thanks for the photo, Johnny!

BPT @ AWP

BPT will have quite a presence at this week’s annual conference of the Association of Writers & Writing Programs (AWP), here in Boston:

• Gregory Fletcher is one of the presenters this morning in "The Ten-Minute Play: The Essential Ingredients;"

• Tonight’s keynote will feature BPT founder Derek Walcott in conversation with poet Seamus Heaney;

• And on Saturday morning Steven Barkhimer, Lydia Diamond, John Kuntz, Melinda Lopez, and Kate Snodgrass will present "Playwright as Actor/Actor as Playwright" and discuss creating characters from their perspectives as trained actors. (Melinda, Bark, and Johnny wrote about this very thing for Playwrights’ Perspective last fall – check out their posts!)

Way to represent, BPT!
