2020-2021 Season
BPT’s 2020-21 season of new plays—thesis plays by our cohort of third-year MFA playwrights—was postponed due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. In the meantime, all five plays were workshopped in collaboration with our friends at BU’s College of Fine Arts School of Theatre. A series of conversations about these plays, BPT Talks, was was held in the fall via the videoconferencing tool Zoom. During the spring semester, BPT Talks About Design expanded the discussion with a focus on the contributions of designers and the role of design in new play development.
