I thought you could all use some information on how to submitt to theatres, how to get produced, how to keep track of everything.
Robin, is the most dedicated playwright I know regarding the marketing end of the business. I thought her practical experience would be very useful to everyone.
Here's a bit about Robin.
Robin Rice Lichtig is the writer of over 40 plays (including 10 full lengths), seen from Florida to Alaska, Amsterdam to South Africa to Mongolia. Her plays create new worlds, soar with imagination, burrow for forgotten feelings, bounce with laughter, surprise with twisty juxtapositions. They are magic carpets whizzing back and forth in time, touching down on the real, unreal, and super-real.
