Brooke, attempting to navigate the world without a family, support system, or access to opportunity, finds herself working over 90 hours a week at three jobs to pay rent, bill collectors, student loans, and manage one meal a day — and she still comes up short every single week. That is, until she is presented with an opportunity that she cannot say no to: the Sugar Bowl.

ABOUT INK SPOT READINGS

These staged readings are part of the Ink Spot Residency, designed to showcase new works in progress and offer playwrights the chance to collaborate with a director and dramaturg for focused development of their plays. These script-in-hand readings also allow each playwright to hear their text aloud and with an audience — often for the very first time! The audience is a crucial component for scripts at this phase of the development process, and each reading will be followed by a guided conversation about the play. We hope you join us to participate directly in the new work development process and help shape how these plays grow!
