Tuesday, May 24 at 8 pm, a reading of Arnold Wesker’s 1959 “kitchen sink drama” Roots. Readers and listeners welcome. “Norfolk, 1959. Beatie Bryant comes home from London to visit her family. She has fallen in love with Ronnie and passionately believes she has escaped her rural roots through the love and education of a good man. While she counts down the two weeks until he visits, she cooks, cleans, bathes and teaches her mother about high culture. As the whole family gathers to await Ronnie’s arrival, Beatie faces her day of reckoning…”
Tuesday May 31, a reading of “God” by Woody Allen, a comic play-within-a-play within-a-play. So who’s in charge here: the playwright?, the characters? the actors? the audience?
