New Works Initiative

Cape May Stage loves to support emerging playwrights and their new plays. Through live and virtual readings held throughout the season, we are able to present these brand new plays to the public and provide real-time feedback to the playwright. New play readings are always donation based to allow everyone to enjoy these works.
 
Your donations to this fund will help offset the costs of these readings and allow us to present even more new and exciting plays!
