New Play Festival 2018

December 6th to 9th 2018

An annual Project by the Playwrights Workshop Trinbago (PWT), T&T New Play Festival (NPF) provides an opportunity for playwrights to further develop NEW work; plays that have never been staged, through workshop performances, with the assistance of dramaturges, directors, actors and audience feedback. The process of building a new play includes workshop performances where the audience is engaged in talkback sessions with the playwright, director and cast. The teams need your help. Come one. Come all. Bring a friend to experience the art of making a play.

This year PWT has collaborated with a consortium of organisations including The National Drama Association of Trinidad and Tobago - NDATT, The Trinidad and Tobago Performing Arts Network, Big Black Box and Trinidad Theatre Workshop.

NPF 2018 will feature an adaption by Earl Lovelace of his popular novel "SALT" directed by Tishanna Williams with Tony Hall as dramaturge; DCFA, UWI St. Augustine graduate Rhesa Samuel's “ASYLUM” directed by Simeon Chris Moodoo, with dramaturgy by Tony Hall, and Academy For the Performing Arts Trinidad & Tobago graduate Narad Mahabir's “THE FORD” directed by Louris Martin Lee-Sing and with Efebo Wilkinson as dramaturge.
