Our stories.

PlayTime is Power Street Theatre's platform for new-work development — A reading and performance series that invests in the future of Philly theatre by creating space for multicultural writers, dramaturgs, directors, and actors to collaborate on the development of a new play. .

Unlike a finished production, PlayTime readings are alive with possibility. Scripts are in process, choices are being made, and the audience is part of the conversation.

A new play may be born on opening night, but it is nurtured in rooms like these. Collaborative, honest, and full of potential. PlayTime is that room.
