The Brooklyn Playwrights Collective is a workshop and theatre group of emerging playwrights
from Brooklyn and Queens. They workshop bi-weekly in and around the Park Slope area. What
unites this diverse group is their urge to create an alternative to traditional “theater-centric”
events by incorporating other types of experimental performance and musical shows onto the
stage.
