ESPA Drills is an annual new play development program providing extensive workshopping, a public presentation , and advocacy with the theater community for four new plays written at least in part at Primary Stages ESPA.  Each July, these plays are selected from dozens of blind submissions for their ambition, voice, and energy. Over the course of multiple months, ESPA actors and outside guests lend their talent to these workshops and reading, which are then presented before an audience of industry peer on an Off-Broadway stage. ESPA Drills provides an exclusive opportunity for ESPA writers to receive professional attention through the resources and support of Primary Stages. These amazing playwrights are being guided through the ESPA Drills process by playwright, director, and ESPA faculty member Melisa Annis, our ESPA Drills advisor.
