Austin Script Works is now ScriptWorks

cjmoore2010-08-20T18:59:13-05:00August 20th, 2010|anouncement|

In recognition of the expansion of our services to the Dallas/Ft. Worth area and acknowledgment that our members are spread across the country, Austin Script Works is now ScriptWorks. The organization will retain Austin Script Works as its legal name but has filed the appropriate paperwork to do business as ScriptWorks. Executive Director Christina J. Moore says "We're very excited about expanding our programming to the Dallas - Fort Worth area, and since about a quarter of our membership lives outside of Austin, now is the perfect time to change our name to reflect our reality."

Sunday, August 29th 5:30-7:30pm The Vortex, 2307 Manor Rd. (map) Members and their families, as well as area playwrights, actors, directors, designers, technicians, and those interested in finding out more about ScriptWorks are invited to the 13th Annual Meet N Greet. This is our annual party to kick-off the new year, welcome new members, swap summer triumphs and tribulations, and get informed about programming in the coming year. The event is free and open to all. We'll will provide libations and attendees are invited to bring their favorite finger food to the potluck. (At 8pm, all are invited to attend the Vortex production of B-boy bluez by ScriptWorks Core Alum Zell Miller, III.) This party has no narrative through-line and no inciting incident, so drop by anytime and rub elbows and egos with the local bards.
