Cape Cod Theatre Project

The Cape Cod Theatre Project is a nonprofit organization founded in 1995 by actors Andrew Polk and Jim Bracchitta, with the mission of collaborating with playwrights, actors, directors, and the public in developing new American plays.[1] The performances are staged readings, after which the audience members may share their reactions with the playwright and help him/her revise the script.[2][3] Playwrights who tried out work at the Project in its early years include Paula Vogel and Jeff Daniels.[3] Performances are staged at Falmouth Academy, in Falmouth, Massachusetts.

The Cape Cod Theatre Project also offers an internship program in which young people are able to learn about stage production and theatrical techniques.

gollark: I wonder if there's a way to make it fairer. Maybe measure latency then delay stuff based on that. It would be hard and probably abusable though.
gollark: It would be a few MB/s, but my computer is on Ethernet via powerline adapter.
gollark: At home, 300KB/s with 25ms latency (powerline adapters are awful).
gollark: I was on my phone at the time, so not much.
