The Queer Reading Series (QRS) celebrates the art of Queer theatre created by early-career playwrights. By providing a play development pathway that empowers 2SLGBTQIA+ artists to share their unique voice and perspectives, we\u2019re creating space to bring together the Queer community and invite audiences to encounter contemporary narratives of Queer life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Begun in 2019, QRS was created and curated as a springboard for members of PWM\u2019s Groupe des jeunes cr\u00e9ateurs<\/a> by PWM Dramaturg Jesse Stong, who continued in this role for four more iterations. Today QRS has expanded as a platform to also support early-career Queer artists who engage with PWM through a variety of programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PWM, in partnership with Centaur Theatre<\/a>, is thrilled to present work-in-progress readings of dynamic new works by Queer artists. Join us as they shine a light on some of the beautiful, complicated moments that shape Queer experiences. Learn more about this exciting platform for Queer voices and our previous presentations by exploring the posts below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
