Tomorrow, my historical farce “Philosophus” opens for a weekend slate of three performances at Plaza Theatre of Wharton, TX!
“Philosophus” was one of three plays chosen as winners in the Texas Nonprofit Theatre Association’s biannual TNT POPS! New Play Contest.
This Facebook announcement from Plaza Theatre says it all…
THIS WEEKEND ONLY: The Plaza Theatre is proud to present a special production of an award-winning new play, Philosophus, this weekend, February 22-24, 2019.
The Texas Nonprofit Theaters organization conducts a playwriting competition every two years called TNT POPS. Out of 100 scripts submitted from playwrights all over the United States, three were selected as TNT POPS winners.
As a member of TNT, the Plaza Theatre was selected to perform one of the winning plays, Colin Speer Crowley’s Philosophus.
