Word! A Sharing of New Plays

Free and open to the public - seating limited, first come first served

The Five College Multicultural Theater Committee (MOSAIC) invites you to join us for Word! A Sharing of New Plays, which features new works by students of color across the Five Colleges. This annual festival foregrounds the experiences of people of color using August Wilson’s idea that theater can raise consciousness. Participating student writers will receive prizes from the James Baldwin Memorial Fund.

Word! is co-sponsored by MOSAIC: The Five College Multicultural Theater Committee and the Mount Holyoke College Art Museum. Jonathan Dent, Assistant Professor of Theater at Hampshire College, facilitated the playwright workshops.

Reception to follow in the Museum Lobby
