Watchnewplaysastheydevelop
By LeeRoscoe

Hal
Brooks has been the
artistic director of the
Cape Cod Theatre Project
in Falmouth for three years. "I
was asked to apply for the job
by its founder, Andy Polk, who
retired after 17 years," he said.
Brooks lives in Brooklyn and is a
freelance theater director.
Five hundred plays are submit-
ted through literary managers
and agents. There's a reading
committee.Narrowingselections
to20, Brooks makes the f inalcall
on works to be presented during
the summer season at Falmouth
Academy. "I am looking for a
range of voices, for plays which
are aweek awayfromproduction
to those in the raw state,"he said.
There are mid-level, beginning
and known writers whose pieces
are read by casts including Obie
award-winningactors, and staged
by directors who compare to the
playwrights in having varying
degrees of experience. Plays
must not run too long or have
too many characters. (Typical of
other theaters' limits these days.)
Brooks said he also thinks of
his audience when picking plays.
"The Woods Hole community,
many of whom are scientists,
wantsomethingboth entertaining
and intellectuallychallenging,"he
said.Audiencesliketoparticipate
in the process; talk back recom-
mendations after each reading
havebeen incorporated by writers
some of whose plays have gone
on to New Yorkproductions He
rSentionedPulitzer recipient An-
rjje Baker as one of their alums.
..Development week gives writ-
ers an opportunity to hear and
cnange their work. "One play-
vftight changedhisstoryradically
qpenight,"said Brooks. "Then he
mergedhis older versionwiththe
new one." (Subscribers to the
seriesspeak of how interesting
it wasto seethe pieces change;
how much fun to be part of the
discussion. Some even go on
more than one evening for
some of the plays to see how
they morph.)
The first reading, held last
weekend, presented The End of
Beautyby Cory Hinkle.A student
returns to hisprofessors as a star,
andwetrackhimovertime,to see
what it means to be an artist, to
take risks.The play also explores
marriage.
Next up is a work by Hamish
Linklater, "an actorturned play-
wright," Brooks said. "He's
worked in TheNewsroomonHBO,
just played Benedict in MuchAdo
AboutNothingat Shakespeare in
the Park. The work is raw in that
there'sa certainhonesty and truth
which isright out there, yet takes
a while to come to the surface.
There are unexpected turns."
Linklater's play, Just Lean Out
Your Window and Shout, will be
read July 10-12
SeaWife (July 17-19) by Seth
Moore (whose The Man -with
the American Skin has won two
awards) and the musical group
The Lobbyists will combine sea
chanteys with a well -structured
story for an evening that Brooks
called "a departure" for CCPT.
"I've worked with Alena
Smith, author of The New Sin-
cerity (July 24-26) and I think
she has an incredible ear for
what is current, is modern, and
is in the Zeitgeist," Brooks said.
"Thisseason'slast play is about a
left-wing magazinewhose editor
tries to co-opt an Occupy Wall
Street type of movement. One
writer, who is having an affair
with the editor, wants to keep it
real. There'sthepolitical angle,as
well as a story about how career
and power intersect."
Alll readings are at 8 p.m. at Falmouth
Academy, 7 Highfield Drive, Falmouth,
