Three new works that dismantle the patriarchy, elevate underrepresented voices and (of course) use stage combat!

The third annual Fighting Words Festival!

Each year BWBTC selects three scripts for development.  Each must have the potential to grow into the kinds of plays that fit BWBTC’s mission.  Several of the Fighting Words selections have been seen as full productions with BWBTC, as well as other theatre companies: most recently 180 Degree Rule, Patchwork Drifter, L’Imbecile and Bo Thomas and the Case of the Sky Pirates.

Each 2019-20 script has undergone two reading-and-feedback sessions with the ensemble and invited guests prior to being introduced to the public (and given the BWBTC treatment of including one staged fight) at the 2020 Festival.

 

Tickets: FREE ADMISSION! Refreshments and a talkback follow each reading.

Plaid As Hell

by Cat McKay

Cass’s annual camping trip is off to a rough start with her best friend Emilie sniping at Cass’s new girlfriend Jess. The serial killer loose in the woods isn’t helping matters, either.
