Springboards Festival Directors, Moderators, and Panellists.

 
“SPRINGBOARDS is the perfect expression of Workshop West’s mission: it supports playwrights by developing their plays in preparation for full production by providing them with sought-after opportunities to beta-test works in progress in front of live audiences. SPRINGBOARDS brings artists and audiences together, celebrating homegrown talent, innovation, and Edmonton’s famed start-up spirit.”
— Heather Inglis, Artistic Producer of WWPT
 
 

Content That Provokes

At Workshop West Playwrights’ Theatre, we often create theatre that deals with challenging content. We do believe that theatre should be surprising – it should be exciting, it should create discussion, and it should delve into situations and ideas that are unexpected. While keeping you and our actors safe, our shows may contain coarse language, emotionally charged scenes, and deal with subjects that may challenge you. There are a variety of works being presented as part of Springboards. Subject and content may vary.
