Page-to-Stage Festival
Wasatch Theatre Company and the Utah Association of Regional Theatres Bring Original Plays to the Utah Stage

What do you get when 13 local playwrights, 8 local theatre companies, 7 directors, a bunch of actors and a tech crew get together? Wasatch Theatre Company�s Page-to-Stage Festival. Presented in partnership with the Utah Association of Regional Theatres (U-ART), the Page-to-Stage Festival, featuring the 10th annual Short-Shorts Program, highlights the collaborative theatrical process from beginning to end. For those looking to expose themselves to the playwriting process � and for those looking for a night (or weekend) out to celebrate and enjoy the gamut of human experience, the Page-to-Stage Festival has much to offer.

Workshops

The public is invited to attend two free workshops as part of the festival.

Participants will learn the fundamentals of composing engaging stage plays.

The second (Saturday, September 18 at 1:00 p.m.) is an Auditioning workshop led by JC Carter and Robert Easton from Around the Globe Theatre Company.
