Panel on Using Source Material Unoriginal Ideas

The Great Plains Theatre Conference presented a panel on using source material: Unoriginal Ideas livestreamed on the global, commons-based peer-produced HowlRound TV network at howlround.tv on Tuesday, May 27 at 10:30 a.m. PDT (Vancouver) / 12:30 p.m. CDT (Austin) / 1:30 p.m. EDT (Toronto) / 17:30 GMT.

From the beginning of civilization, playwrights have written works based on various source materials. History and mythology alone have fueled hundreds of thousands of plays. Where are playwrights looking for material today, and how are they transforming it for the stage?  Join panelists Josh Hecht and Jody McAuliffe in the discussion.
