About
Laura Martin ’11 has a Humanities Center internship with PlayPenn, a theater organization in Philadelphia. PlayPenn hosts a conference every summer in which several playwrights from across the U.S. are invited to develop their plays. Directors, actors, designers, and dramaturgs are involved in developing each play, and the conference culminates in a staged reading of the different pieces of work. Martin will be helping in the run-up to the conference with organizational work, and will help during the conference on one of the playwright’s plays. She will also be writing a one-act of my own which will be performed.
