BPP’s inaugural production of Hand on Mirror by Jim Poyser (1979)

A Brief History of the BPP

Thirty years ago, the Bloomington Playwrights Project (BPP) was founded by Tom Moseman and Jim Leonard, both of whom shared a vision of creating a venue to workshop and produce local playwrights' works, and provide a place for actors, directors, and theatre technicians to hone their crafts. Jim Leonard's play The Diviners has since seen many productions across the country, and he has gone on to write and produce for television, notably Skin and most recently Close to Home. Tom Moseman is currently Senior Vice President of Envirosell.
