Play Reading For Play Lovers: Mysteries and Thrillers

Do you love language and theatre? Have you ever found it challenging to read rather than see a play? Do you love reading plays but wish it were a more social activity?

Join Artistic Director Marti Lyons and your classmates in an intimate and animated “book club” conversation discussing the writing, contexts, techniques, and theatrical ideas of 10 plays and their playwrights over the second half of our season, with a focus on two plays from an individual playwright each month. Discover the joys of studying plays and theatrical writing in all sorts of new ways!

This spring we will be reading mysteries and thrillers! Check out the full syllabus below.
