Writers Theater Writers Theaters are held about four times per year, on the standard afternoon or evening meeting days and times. These are fun opportunities for you to share a bit of your work with others, and get to know other writers and their work. These aren’t critique sessions, but you’ll find a room full of friendly and supportive listening ears.
Bring a short piece, or a brief excerpt from a longer piece, to read aloud (for a maximum of 5-7 minutes—time yourself at home first). You may also bring a dessert to share, and enjoy the goodies that others bring. Check the website calendar for specific days, times, and locations. Again, everyone is welcome.
