Qwest is Screaming Weenie’s play development program for British Columbia playwrights working on queer-themed work. Selected writers spend up to a year developing their play with a Screaming Weenie dramaturge. Qwest is indicative of Screaming Weenie’s commitment to new work and to supporting and developing local theatre artists.
Current QWEST Playwright: Minh Ly
