Newspeak: A 2-week developmental festival of new work for the stage.

The Truth: A chance for PCS to loosen the hairnet. It's 2 weeks of playing rough in the dirt with Oregon and national playwrights, jumping into some site specifics, and lots 'o mingling. Check out what that drafting, re-drafting, re-creating, tossing-it-all-out-and-writing-it-again is all about.

JAW is awesome. It's free. It's the 10th anniversary and they're pullin' out all the stops.
