Moving Arts is producing a series of workshops called Plays In Motion. These workshops are a deeper dive into scripts we love with an eye toward future production. A creative team of Director, Dramaturge, Designer and Actors come together with the Playwright to explore the script. The workshop culminates with a “Reading-Plus” performance, incorporating lights, sound, movement and other theatrical elements, all live and in person at the Moving Arts Theatre in Atwater Village.
