Sewanee Conference Plays

"This summer I attended the Sewanee Writers’ Conference (AKA writer summer camp), which was hosted on the University of the South campus. Led by faculty writers David Adjmi, Nathan Alan Davis, Talene Monahon, and Liliana Padilla, two cohorts of playwrights workshopped new plays, attended craft lectures, and read their work in various open mics and salon readings. From their heart boxes to yours, here are 14 awesome Sewanee playwrights and their new plays!"—playwright Adrienne Dawes

Rachel Feeny-Williams recommended There Is No Play by Arthur M Jolly
“ The censorship of creative work is something that people face every day unfortunately. Arthur has taken this concept and explored it with powerful (and for me almost rhythmic) language. You feel for these kids, desperately trying to express themselves creatively while their parents have other ideas. It portrays an important message about creative freedom and for that reason alone this is a play that needs to be seen. An incredible work from Arthur Jolly! ”
Christopher Plumridge recommended New Kid Next Door by Arthur M Jolly
“ An idyllic setting, 4th July, friends waiting for the fireworks when the new kid next door pops by.....what could go wrong? There are subtle hints to the direction of this piece as it plays out, but they don't prepare you for the clever final twist! I love he way the writer keeps this mystery subtle, leaving the audience to make up their mind. Love it! ”
Jordan Noble recommended MLM is for Murder (Or, Your Side Hustle is Killing Us) by John Bavoso
“ This play is a wonderful distillation of the zeitgeist. MLMs, true crime podcasting, and the distant but connected world we all live in now. Fun and funny on the page, it's also very well suited to the stage. ”
Adam Richter recommended Allen's Big Adventure by Philip Middleton Williams
“ It seems like an impossible task to articulate the hole in our lives that people leave behind when they die, but Philip Williams has done it, with poignancy and beautiful language. In a few short minutes the audience gets such a detailed view of Allen, of Philip and of their relationship that they, too, share in the sense of loss. ”
