The BPF Mission
Our mission is to provide an environment that nurtures the talents of Maryland and DC playwrights. The BPF does this
through public readings, discussions, critiques and workshopping of new plays. Our summer season is devoted to the
presentation of these newly developed works, for the entertainment and cultural edification of our audiences.
If a new-play festival can identify even one promising playwright, it's worth doing.
