The Wisconsin Wrights New Play Festival, organized by Forward Theater Company, showcases three new works by Wisconsin playwrights over three consecutive nights. This biennial festival emphasizes the development of original theatrical pieces through a structured selection process, where chosen playwrights collaborate with professional directors, dramaturgs, and actors to refine their scripts, culminating in public readings of each play. Each evening is dedicated to a single work, highlighting the diversity and creativity of Wisconsin's theatrical community.
