Backstage at Lights Up! 2022

City Lights’ podcast festival of new plays, “Lights Up!” is an exciting way to explore to fresh scripts – some of which may end up on our mainstage in future seasons!

This year, we’re hosting a special Zoom talkback. Guest hosts Ivette Deltoro and Carol Diaz-Arrastía will chat about the festival, producing a podcast, and this year’s play selections. They’ll be joined by playwrights Alethea Shirilan-Howlett, Russell Weeks, Guy R. Newsham and Allie Costa. Also: “Lights Up!” directors Melinda Marks and Sarah Younan, and New Works Chair Rachel Bakker.
