This opportunity allowed me focus again on this play, and made me excited to revise again. I was particularly happy to have selected for DDP a play that I have struggled with for years without a strong and clear sense of direction. Working with a dramaturg so clear, focused, knowledgeable, and supportive has given me confidence in my piece and a strong urge to move forward with revision”
