     New Play Development


       Through Ignition Productions, Zubel was involved in the workshop process of multiple new plays. During week-long workshops in           collaboration with performers, director, dramaturg, and playwright, initial drafts of these scripts were reshaped and polished into             more final products, and then given a staged reading. A talkback followed the reading to continue the discussion on the growth of           these plays:


  • Death Drives a Minivan by Nicole Zimmerer (One Act, 2016)
  • Winners by Will Inman (One Act, 2016)
  • Judas Kiss by Caitlin Turnage (Full Length, 2016)
