1st Year's National Kennedy Center Award Winning Play On Tour:

Ryan Dowler's play Mammals, which won the Kennedy Center's National 10-minute Play Contest and was featured at the Kennedy Center last year, has been on tour around the country (co-sponsored by the Northwest Playwrights Alliance and Western Washington University). The slate of productions began in early January and will culminate in March with a production in Chacombe, England (about an hour and half northeast of London). Northwest Playwrights Alliance also featured Mammals as an informal reading on December 8, 2007, in Tacoma, WA, as part of NPA's monthly reading series, and plans to publish the play in the third edition of their anthology of ten-minute plays, "NorthNorthwest," co-produced by NPA and Western Washington University.
