On Feb. 18 and 19, SPQR Stage Company will host a “New Play Festival,” a two-day showcase of eight original plays that will come to life at Studio;Space in Somers Point. The festival’s playwrights were chosen from a pool of applicants from across the country. The eight plays, each of which runs for approximately 10 minutes, will be divided up into acts titled “New Jersey” and “Not Jersey”.
