ARTS/West is pleased to
announce an exciting new opportunity for new play development. We
received well over 100 submissions for our Humble Play last year and 4
days just wasn't long enough for all of the great new plays we wanted to
read. So, the Hodge Podge Play Reading Series was born!
The
first Hodge Podge Play Reading Series will be held one Sunday a month
January - March 2012 at ARTS/West, located at 132 W. State St. in Athens,
Ohio. Jan. 8, 2012, 2:00pm- Reading of Women and Guns by Steve Gold of Jamesburg, New JerseyFeb. 5, 2012, 2:00pm- Reading of Spake by David L. Williams of New York, New YorkMar. 4, 2012, 2:00pm- Reading of Dissolution of Mr. Stein by Marianne Hales Harding of St. George, Utah Each
selected play will be presented as an informal reading. A reading is
defined as actors presenting the words of a script, using
scripts-in-hand. With no rehearsals prior to the public reading, each
reading will be kept extremely simple so that the playwright's words may
be the focus of the event. All readings will be followed by a potluck
(bring a dish to share!) and moderated talk back session where audience
members are invited to enjoy homemade cuisine and to give their
feed-back on the plays. All events are free and open to the public and begin at 2:00 PM. Donations are encouraged.
Space
is limited and reservations are strongly encouraged. To receive a copy
of the play to be read, please make reservations by calling 740/592.4315 at least 48 hours in advance. Many thanks to the Humble Play Committee for helping to make this event possible.
