I started a theater company.
In the past, I've accidentally created a theater company (and you're on its website!) And I've joined companies already in progress (thanks First Seen!) Of course, I've worked for others. But this is the first time I've intentionally done it. Started a company, ground up.
Every Sunday in October? That's crazy! But it's true.
Los Angeles, please welcome exAngelus Playwrights Collective. We must be real. Here's the proof:
We've got a mission:
To serve its member playwrights by providing ongoing workshops, dramaturgical and administrative support and production opportunities- on the playwright's terms.
And a vision:
Kyle T. Wilson, Katherine Murphy and Tira Palmquist begin the ExAngelus Playwrights' Collective with a small but powerful idea:
    we will do it ourselves.
I'll stop there. You can read the rest on our website.
The real proof:
The ball is rolling! On Sunday, October 2nd, 2001, Kyle T. Wilson's make a whisper kicked off our, well, our everything: Our reading series, A Month of Sundays, and our company. And what an inauguration it was! The house was full, the audience loved it, and the script told tales of small theater in LA in a small theater in LA by a small theater company in LA. So meta.
Last Sunday was just the beginning. Every Sunday in October you can see a new play in our Month of Sundays. (A reading of my script, Box Store Cowboys, will happen in January. Crap. Time to rewrite!)
Last but not least — Thank you Psychic Visions Theatre for hosting our entry into the world.
