AzukaFest!

Join us for Azuka’s inaugural celebration of fresh plays being written by members of our New Pages and Rising Writers playwright cohorts. It’s going to be Philly AF!

More than a play reading series, AzukaFest is a 3-day opportunity to mingle, discuss, enjoy a selection of food and drinks from area restaurants, and experience new play joy in the middle of winter! Get one of our festival packages for full-day or full-festival options, or go a-la-carte with Pay What You Decide or our new Quick Pay option!

Thank you to our Honorary Producers Dr. Joel & Mrs Roberta Porter.

Please note: Individual concessions vouchers will go on sale starting December 1, 2024!
