We are so proud of the writers who participated in the seventh cycle of our Moving Arts Development Lab (MADlab): Robert Menna, Howard Ho, Emily Fernandez, and Amy Dellagiarino. This year we received over 50 applications from Los Angeles playwrights, with an impressive level of artistic quality overall.

The MADlab playwrights worked with dramaturges, directors and actors as they craft brand-new plays over nine months, culminating in the First Look Reading Series which took place October 25th & November 1st 2020.
