The Pack 2009-2010
The Pack is a select group of theater and film artists who come together to form a developmental community. They meet once a month to share work, explore new ideas and collaborate with fellow Pack members.
Work that is created in the Pack is further developed through public presentations in The Lounge Series. The Lounge Series was established to showcase the work and talent of the writers, actors and directors who take part in The Pack. In the ’09-’10 season the Lounges featured two new plays by Pack members, acted and directed by members of The Pack. Our final Lounge of last season was a night of 10 minute plays created by Members of the Pack. The authors were given the theme of mistaken identity and several words or concepts that must appear in the short play. The plays will be fully rehearsed and presented at The Robert Moss Theater.

The 2009-2010 Pack
The Pack and The Lounge also contribute to Packawallop’s mission to produce new work that not only explores the themes of sexual, cultural and gender identity, but that fosters community between artists and their audience. We believe that in an age where we as a society tend to live more and more virtually, that coming together as a group of bodies in the same room becomes of utmost importance. We also hope that the Pack and the Lounge will be the source of new and exciting mainstage productions for Packawallop. We believe the quality of our work correlates to the involvement of our artistic community. In short, the more Packawallop encourages their artistic community to work together and explore artistically, the better the work we present and the better we can serve our audience.
