Shotgun Players To Present Their 29th Season

Founding Artistic Director Patrick Dooley has this to say about Shotgun's latest lineup: "For 2020 we selected a season of plays with writing that leaped off the page. Words so good that you want to hear them every night. And we found plays with characters that intrigue us - not necessarily because they're so honorable that we want to be like them - but because we might have something to learn from their all too familiar shortcomings. We hope you'll be as inspired (and hopeful!) as we are for our 2020 season."

In addition to the six main stage plays in Shotgun's 29th season, they are also offering a set of three staged readings.
