"For anyone serious about their craft, Ken Wolf’s Playwright’s Reading Room series is a great step in the development process. There’s nothing like hearing your work read by a team of actors to gain insights on pacing, clarity and flow. Ken creates a supportive and motivational environment that’s as instructive as it is fun."  - Iyna Caruso - Playwright

Self-Produce a production of your best written play in New York City, or anywhere in the world! We will do all the work, from hiring a production team and staff, to casting, directing, costume design, set design, lighting design, and more.

Maybe you are submitting your plays in the wrong way. A way that will push theatres and producers away from reading your work. Maybe your submission materials are poorly put together, or your submission simply looks like spam?

"Ken is a wonderful, gentle coach who will support you at every step of the creative process. Writing can be an incredibly isolating, solitary pursuit. Without having someone to interact with your work and hold you accountable to deadlines, it can feel as if you aren't making the progress you should be. My decision to work with Ken feels like a meaningful investment in myself and my play. Ken's long-term professional experience in acting, writing and producing makes him an excellent resource to you. He has the capacity to view your work from many different lenses and provide you with advice that best helps convey your story and makes it viable for production. Not to mention, he is seriously passionate about your work and will treat it with the utmost kindness as he challenges you to take it further. All in all, I am very happy with my decision to work with Ken."
