SUMMARY:2026 Queer Reading Series
DESCRIPTION:JOIN US IN CELEBRATING QUEER THEATRE AT THE 2026 QUEER READING SERIES. \nPWM\, in partnership with Centaur theatre\, invites you to join us for two readings of dynamic new works-in-progress by Queer artists. The Queer Reading Series continues for its 6th year amplifying the voices of early-career 2SLGBTQIA+ playwrights. \nOn May 14 and 15 at 7:30PM\, Centaur Theatre will host Not Just Empty Space by Sarah Danielle Pitman and Dylan’s Song by Anna Morreale. Each performance will be followed by a conversation with the creative team. \nThe Queer Reading Series is a FREE event. Donations help us keep our programming free to artists\, and will be gratefully accepted at the door. \nBoth readings will be presented with English captions\, and the conversations will be presented with auto-generated captioning\, for accessibility purposes. \nJoin us to uplift exciting new works-in-progress and support Queer voices exploring the intersections of queerness and artistic practice.
