Founded in 1996, the OPC is set in the Ojai countryside, a retreat-like environment away from nearby Los Angeles that provides a place where scribes work in-house on their developing plays. The intensive workshop ends with the public readings.

The show starts at 6:30 PM at the Matilija Junior High School Auditorium, 708 El Paseo Rd. in Ojai, CA.

General admission — which includes the reading, complimentary refreshments and snacks — is priced at $65 while the premium ticket — which also includes a dinner with the cast and live auction — can be purchased for $225 by calling (805) 640-0400.
