After seeing Play/Write, keep those calendars open! Next Up! May 10 -26 all shows start @7:30pm and then 3pm on Sundays. UNO theater students get free admission and it’s $10 for all UNO students! Come see some of New Orleans’ funniest actors in a zany, floppy, adult puppet theatre send-up of Tennessee Williams’ most desperate characters! Come see the outrageous antics in a small southern town’s rec hall as Blanche Dubious stumbles in on a meeting of arch Southern ladies that is categorically not what she planned for. Inner and outer struggles come to hilarious new light as we turn Williams’ iconic themes on their heads. This show is NOT kid friendly.

At the Showcase, sixteen plays written by fifth and six-grade students from the Greater New Orleans area will be performed by local theatre companies.

These companies’ adult performers will bring the students’ words from the page to the stage, celebrating the creativity of all 425 students involved in the Play/Write program this year. 

Each night a unique program!

The Play/Write program consists of yearlong playwriting classes. Over the course of the year, each student writes eight original scripts and chooses one to expand into a full-length play. Eight of these plays are chosen for the Showcase. All students will attend the Showcase event during a morning field trip, where they will receive a formatted and professionally bound copy of their script. The evening Showcase performance is open to the students’ families and the public.
