About the Ojai Playwrights Conference:
THE OJAI PLAYWRIGHTS CONFERENCE is a developmental program that values the reading and workshop process as an important avenue through which playwrights can more fully realize their intentions with a play. Ours is a conference centered around playwrights and their new plays. We believe the theatre can be a vital and essential forum for the exchange of new and challenging ideas about the world in which we live. We seek out plays and playwrights who share this vision.
