Present a Piece
Are you interested in presenting a work-in-progress as part of a future salon? We are now accepting submissions for Summer and Fall 2023. We'd love to have you!

If you have a play, scene, musical, song, poem, dance, or any other piece of performance art that you would like to present to a live audience, you've come to the right place. Presenters share roughly 10 minutes or less of their works-in-progress followed by 10-15 minutes dedicated to feedback and dialogue about the piece.
