Thank you for joining us online for our reading of Bret Bucci's play in progress "Perfect Fifths"! The cast and crew would like to wish everyone a safe holiday season. Bret would love to read your feedback before she writes her next draft. You can share your thoughts on the play on our feedback page. Stay tuned for announcements about our upcoming events in 2021! |
After the unjust events of this year that have brought more people's attention to systemic racism, The Forge Theater Lab joins Fitchburg State University in recognizing that all lives cannot matter until Black and Brown lives matter. We must do better as a society to achieve true justice and safety for all of our citizens, and as artists we take a stand against racism, ignorance, hate, and brutality. In the coming months, as the theater world comes back to life, The Forge Theater Lab will examine what steps it can take to amplify Black and Brown voices and create an equitable, welcoming environment for artists of color at all levels of our organization.

WRIGHT CLUB
Every Wednesday at 7:00
Wright Club is a judgment-free creative space that allows for unspoken accountability for playwrights looking to work in a quiet and nurturing virtual environment. The first rule of Wright Club is mute yourself when writing. Kidding. Well, kind of. Join in on the fun every Wednesday at 7:00 PM.
How to join on Google Meet:
https://meet.google.com/qhk-iqut-ngq
The setup:
1) We'll start with a 5-minute check-in to define individual goals for the writing time.
2) We'll then mute ourselves to share space for 45 minutes without comment while writing individually, yet simultaneously together.
3) We'll close with a brief check-out to touch base on everyone's progress.
There is no obligation or commitment necessary! Please feel free to join weekly if you're able; otherwise, drop-ins are more than welcome!
Co-facilitators: Mary Darling and Steven William Beck
