Part of the company’s Doric Wilson Playwrights Project, these playwrights and their original short plays join other inspired full-length works by notable playwrights presented earlier this season, including Lanford Wilson, Danielle Frimer, John Patterson, and Tom Rowan.

Newly renamed in honor of an original founder of TOSOS, The Doric Wilson Playwrights Project (formerly The Chesley/Chambers Reading Series) is a celebration of impassioned LGBTQIA+ voices contributing to our collective theatrical heritage, and an ongoing forum for playwrights to have their work presented and voices heard. During TOSOS’s 50th anniversary season, the company has presented new and classic works by Lanford Wilson (Lemon Sky), Danielle Frimer (P. Pan El Al), John Patterson (MASK4MASK), and Tom Rowan (Burning Leaves). Click here for more information.
