Actress Estelle Parsons, In Conversation: The Perlberg Festival of New Plays, Palm Beach Dramaworks 2024

Academy Award-winner Estelle Parsons, who appeared at PBD in 2014 in My Old Lady, has originated roles in numerous plays during a career that spans more than seven decades. She won a Best Supporting Actress Oscar for Bonnie and Clyde, and is perhaps best known for her role as Roseanne and Jackie's mother on the sitcom Roseanne.

The Perlberg Festival of New Plays exemplifies one of the core missions of regional theatre: to nurture, develop, and bring to life thoughtful, stimulating, and entertaining new American plays. The festival enables playwrights to hear their words read in front of a live audience as they continue to shape their emerging work. New plays are the future of theatre, and the goal of the festival is to become a leader in fostering the future.
