Sister Stages: Celebrating Women in Musical Theatre
Step into the spotlight with Leading Ladies, a joyful and energizing musical theatre. Guided by veteran director Laurel Smith of Burning Passions Theatre Company, participants will explore rich ensemble material drawn from classic and contemporary musicals written for – and about – strong, dynamic female characters.
Playwrights Circle
As part of its renewed strategic direction working on training, mentoring and new work development, Burning Passions Theatre launched a new program in 2025, the Playwrights Circle, offering writers an outstanding dramaturgical opportunity with veteran award-winning theatre director, playwright, and dramaturge Laurel Smith, the company’s Artistic Producer. Meeting weekly, these writers had the opportunity to refine and reflect on the progress of their work in a group setting facilitated by Smith.
