Best Revival

Before it was disbanded, the Denver Center Theatre Company’s Playwrights Unit gave local playwrights a chance not only to see their works receive a major production, but also to collect some actual cash. The group rewarded us with an embarrassment of artistic riches, including such plays as Molly Newman’s Quilters (which is still performed across the country), Terry Dodd’s Goodnight, Texas, and Frank X. Hogan’s Ringers. A lack of funding dropped the curtain on the program over a decade ago, but thanks to a $100,000 grant from the Pew Charitable Trust, it’s now been re-established. Action!
