Wordsmyth Theater is now accepting One Act or Two Act plays for a New Play Reading Series. Each month, a selected playwright will be paired with a director and cast. The play will then be read in front of an audience. The audience will then be invited to stay after for a discussion of the play moderated by a professor of dramaturgy from University of Houston. Please visit our Play Submissions page for information on how to submit.

The experience and/or training expected for membership to the gym is for the individual to possess an ability level that is agreed upon by the Actors Gym members to be at a professional performance level. If your work is not known to the gym members an audition for membership is required. You will be asked to perform two contrasting monologues that total no more than five minutes. Your audition and experience will be considered by two or more members of the gym to decide on your request for membership.
