“Springboards boastfully shows off Workshop West’s raison d'etre to both develop and produce new Canadian plays by placing the process of theatrical creation in public view. Audiences are given a backstage pass into the world of playmaking, where the processes of writers are revealed and celebrated. Edmonton is a theatre town, and at Springboards our exciting and robust theatre community rallies around playwrights and their plays. It’s a terrific week of fun, community, and some of the best new plays you’ll hear anywhere.”
