Centenary Stage Company's Women Playwrights Series is back in April, with three shows. The WPS is a developmental program dedicated to providing a working forum for the unique voice of women writing for the theatre today. Each season new plays are selected for a collaborative workshop process, with a professional director and actors, which takes place in a brief rehearsal period of approximately one week, allowing time for the playwright to hear and adapt their work with other professionals. The process culminates in a presentation of the work for the general public as part of the series, giving CSC audiences larger exposure to new work. This year's WPS features Abigail, Wasabia and For a Brighter Tomorrow.
