CreateTheater Joins TRU to Produce Readings and Workshops

Theater Resources Unlimited (TRU) announces the 23rd annual series of new plays, now virtual, by TRU writers produced by TRU producers, as part of TRU Voices New Plays Virtual Reading Series on Sundays, February 12 & 19, 2023 at 3pm. The series executive producers are TRU executive director Bob Ost; TRU literary manager and founder of CreateTheater, Cate Cammarata; and technical producer Iben Cenholt. Each play will be followed by TRU’s renowned “Dollars and Sense” talkback focusing on the future development of the play read, and featuring professional producers, artistic directors and general managers. Tickets are on sale beginning Monday, January 2, 2023.

“Both of our selected plays this year highlight the feminine BIPOC experience of American life in the 21^st century, one in an academic setting, one in a Queens laundromat,” said Cammarata. “Written by men, and matched with strong female directors, they were highly resonant with our selection committee and demonstrate theater’s diversity and inclusiveness in storytelling.

Off-Broadway producer-director-dramaturg Cate Cammarata was honored as TRU 2022 Entrepreneur of the Year on March 20 as part of the annual TRU Benefit Gala.

As the Founder of CreateTheater.com in 2016, formed to work dramaturgically with writers in the US and abroad, Ms. Cammarata launched the Monday Night Reading Series the first week of the lockdown in March 2020 to keep writers focused and developing their shows while theaters were closed. During the pandemic CreateTheater helped develop and/or produced more than 70 shows with online readings, workshops and dramaturgical guidance. It was for this previous work that she is being recognized by TRU.
