** Writers**

Playwrights! Part Time Playhouse can't happen without you. We need scripts, or else it's highlight clips and filler material. If you've seen the show, then you may be able to appreciate what a valuable service it is to the local community of writers. At no cost to you, we provide the television crew and live broadcast to thousands on cable and the internet, through the facilities of MetroEast Community Media.

Here's a list of local writers who've had their scripts performed on Part Time Playhouse:

Francesca Sanders
Sharon Sassone
Blair Vail
Don Teeters
Barbara Genovese
Sandra de Helen
Alex Gagne-Hawes
Katharine Rose
Jeremy Benjamin
Archie Washington

There's no selection committee. I read everything and program the series episodes with an open mind and broad tastes, so send in your play today! No more than 5 actors with simple tech is preferable, and station policy prohibits explicit language and situations during primetime.

Sincerely,

Archie Washington
Producer / Director
Part Time Playhouse

New Sex-Positive Storytelling Show looking for Storytellers

Hello,

My name is Eric, and I am the producer of a new live storytelling series called The Mystery Box Show. We feature live storytellers sharing true stories of sex and sexuality, unmemorized and in front of a welcoming audience.

We just had our first show in April and we're already planning our next series of shows. I want to get the word out to anyone interested in sex and sexuality; particularly anyone who might have a story to share themselves!

Getting on stage and telling a true story from your life, even for performers who are comfortable performing in front of an audience, can be a new and exciting experience. I figured that at least a few folks in this group would have some intriguing tales just waiting to be told.

If you'd like to learn more about our show, I invite you to visit us at MysteryBoxShow.com. Feel free to get in touch with any thoughts or questions-- we'd love to hear from you.

Thank you for your time.

Cheers!

Eric Scheur
Producer, The Mystery Box Show
