After two seasons online and two seasons on hiatus, this free series—which has been providing plays-in-progress by Utah playwrights their first audience since 2004—returns to the Studio Theatre @ The Rose! The three plays-in-progress by Utah playwrights to be read in this season’s series are: 

1. PHỞ 69: A ROMANCE by first-time playwright Wendy Dang | Saturday, February 14, 2026 @ 7pm

In PHỞ 69: A ROMANCE, Mai & Binh are the children of the owners of two rival phở restaurants. Their love story is filled with familial obligation, growth, and an ending everyone deserves.

2. APHASIA by Dee-Dee Darby-Duffin (EllaMental, “DOLs” as part of LOCAL COLOR, “Fried Chicken” as part of FULL COLOR) | Saturday, February 21, 2026 @ 7pm

In APHASIA, a mother and daughter struggle to map out a new way to communicate, which they didn’t do all that well in the first place. How do you talk to someone who can’t answer you back?

3. A.l., TOO by Mahonri Stewart (making his Plan-B debut) | Saturday, February 28, 2026 @ 7pm

In A.I. TOO, Robert & Aida have grown both restless and complacent while their robot has grown sentient. A tale of unraveling assumptions, faith crises, and the power of the poetry Langston Hughes.

 Sponsored by Lee & Audrey Hollaar
