NEWS AND ANNOUNCEMENTS

Interested in serving on LTA’s Play Selection Committee for the 2025-2026 Season? 

LTA is accepting applications for volunteers to serve on the play reading committee. The committee reads plays that are recommended for production at LTA and narrows the selections down to a projected season. The recommendations for the season are then presented to the Board of Governors who make a final determination based on these recommendations. To serve on the committee you need to be either a member of LTA or to be willing to join if selected. Plays will be made available in pdf form either through email or Google Drive; some plays such as musical librettos may need to be read online. Committee members should be comfortable working in a digital environment.  

There are a limited number of spots on the committee, and we will not be able to accommodate everyone who expresses interest. We aim to select a committee that has experience in a large number of areas at LTA. The application can be found here. Questions? Contact the committee chair at ltaseasonalplanning@gmail.com.  Deadline to submit an application is January 19, 2024.

Have an idea for a play or musical that you think would be great on the LTA stage, then the Play Selection Committee would like to hear from you. Complete this form and offer up to two suggestions. Just remember some minimum requirements: shows must be published, have a minimum cast of four, and amateur rights need to be available. If you submit a show ultimately selected to be performed at LTA, you will receive a free pair of tickets! Deadline to submit your suggestions is January 19, 2024.
