Thank You For A Great Fourth Season!!!

I wanted to thank every actor, writer, director, and staff person who worked on this past season at SCTC. I really can't believe we have completed four seasons in Waterfront South! My largest thanks , though, is to every audience member who came to Camden this season to see a play. Without you there is no SCTC. We had over 700 people attend plays this season, our largest year yet! We will be announcing our next season very soon. I can tell you it will be full of both new work to us and some old "friends". Please sign up for our email list on the site so we can send out the new season as soon as it is finalized. We will be getting a better idea of when the new Waterfron South Theatre will be able to open soon and we will let you know the shows and dates at that time which should be mid-June. All the best for a wonderful summer and.....when you have time...go see a play. Theatre only lives and breathes by your participation. Thanks again to everyone. Heal Camden!

And Justice For All - Final Weekend!!!

You have three more chances to see our current production AND JUSTICE FOR ALL five one act plays about political and social injustice. Shows are Friday, Saturday at 8PM and Sunday at 1:30 PM. Over the past two weeks writers have come from to Camden from Boston, Chicago and New York to see their shows and each one has told me after that this festival ranks as highly as any they had seen in the country. These festivals give new writers a voice, directors a place to grow and actors a chance to dig into new material and make it their own. The subjects range from the true incident of three nuns arrested in Colorado for defacing a nuclear missile silo to my own play about the current police shootings in Philadelphia and how they are tearing the justice and police system wide open. Please take the time to see the plays this weekend. After Sunday, we will be taking the summer off and will be letting you know when our next season will open when a schedule is finalized. We will have a better idea next month as the new, exciting Waterfront South Theatre is now under construction. Please email or call us if you would like to help bring a new theatre to Camden! Thank you for all of your continued support for our 4th season. Without you there would be no SCTC.

More Injustice...from Washington

On the floor of the US Congress on Wednesday, Representative Virginia Foxx [R] urged the congress to vote against the hate crime legislation named for Matthew Shepard because his killing was a "hoax". She said his murder was from a robbery and was not because he was gay. This insensitive, bigoted, homophobic woman actually sits in Congress. With statements like that you can see why her party is now out of power and mired in their own civil war. People like her keep lying, feeling that the more the lie is told it will then become the truth. We have already produced "Laramie Nights", my play about the killing, which shows one of the killers as a closeted, conflicted man, full of internal rage that he ends up inflicting on Matthew by beating him and tying him to a fence to die. His motivation has been proven to be actually true. We need this to stop! Please call the congresswoman at 202 225 2071 or 336 778 0211 and tell her that injustice and bigotry will not be tolerated. During our current festival your call could not be timelier.
