The Landing Theatre Company, in collaboration with Mildred’s Umbrella Theater Company and Wordsmyth Theater Company,  present the 2012 New American Voices Play Reading Series.

The Landing Theatre Company is a professional company in residence at the University of Houston-Downtown. Artistic Director David Rainey created the company in the summer of 2010 to help build bridges between profession and training. The company offers an annual summer festival of plays devoted to American playwriting and stories about the American experience.

This season the Landing Theatre Company is offering a collaborative project with Mildred’s Umbrella Theater Company and Wordsmyth Theater Company on a new play development series called The New American Voices Play Reading Series featuring four nights of new plays. The new series runs from Thursday, July 5 through Sunday, July 8 in Robertson Auditorium on the 3rd floor of the One Main Building at UHD. Readings begin at 7pm, except for Sunday, which begins at 3pm. Each reading is followed by a half hour talkback with the playwright, cast and director.
