WPI New Voices Festival

Submissions are now open for New Voices 38! View the submission guidelines here!

WPI is proud to be able to continue its long-running play festival New Voices . This festival allows members of the WPI community to see their works produced onstage. It is a great way for students to try new things and take risks in theatre as each show needs a director, a stage manager, and a cast.
