She’ll join writer and Border Theatre founder Austin Savage, our host, to critique each pitch. Competing in this year’s pitch fest are: Mark Amaro, El Paso; Scott Carrillo-Logan, Las Cruces; Jorge Gomez, El Paso; Naomi Gomez, Las Cruces; Christine Lozano, El Paso; Benjamin Moncada, El Paso; Jorge III Monsisvais, El Paso; Gabriel Philip Rivera, El Paso; Alecs Román, El Paso; and Graciela Sarinana, El Paso.
