SUMMARY:Queering The Stage Playwrights (in person only)
DESCRIPTION:We will read scripts in development by Queer playwrights and screenwriters. Queer writers with works they want read\, and actors wanting to improve their cold reading skills are welcome to join this in person event. Depending on requests\, we will read short scenes or full scripts. If you would like your work read or want to offer your acting talent\, please join the meetup group Queering The Stage Playwrights and message the organizer\, Jack Shamblin: \n https://www.meetup.com/queering-the-stage-playwrights/\n  \nThis event will take place in person at the Bureau of General Services—Queer Division\, on the second floor (room 210) of The LGBT Community Center\, 208 W. 13th St.\, NYC\, 10011. \nSuggested donation $10 to benefit the Bureau’s work. \nAll are welcome to attend\, with or without donation. \nWe will pass a bag for donations at the start of the event\, but we can also take credit card donations at the register or on Venmo @bgsqd. \n  \nJack “Mia” Shamblin (pronouns flexible) is a Queer performer\, playwright\, and filmmaker based currently in Brooklyn\, NY.  \nRaised in rural Northeastern Oklahoma\, Shamblin is proud to be a Cherokee Nation tribal member. From working-class pioneer stock\, the sexually and gender non-conforming Shamblin’s awareness of cultural inequality and exclusion provoked them into creating political art. Several critics described Shamblin’s work as fierce\, punching\, stunning\, and witty. The camp is like wrapping a feather boa around painful truths.  \nNew York legends such as La MaMa ETC\, Dixon Place\, Mother\, and HERE have produced their plays.  \nIn 2015\, Shamblin published Queering The Stage\, a collection of their LGBTQIA++ scripts. In addition to a NY community\, Shamblin lived several years in Portugal where they wrote and performed for choreographer Paulo Henrique\, taught at Centro Em Movimento\, and created the experimental film O Castelo Preto.  \nHighlights were performing with Philip Seymour Hoffman in The Skriker by Caryl Churchill and with Kate Bornstein in Shamblin’s play Thurma.
