The Spring 2018 Series Begins!

2/5/2018

0 Comments

 
We're pretty excited about our Spring Lineup - and we're hoping you can join us for our first reading on Monday, March 5th from 6-9pm! 

This month we're looking forward to diving into questions about what it mean to 'pass' the Bechdel Test and how writers create space for complex female characters. We also take a journey into political aftermaths - both in the immediate and in the future.

We're thrilled to introduce you to two fabulous playwrights:

In Mathilde Dratwa's Milk and Gall,
Vera gives birth to a shape-shifting baby on election night, and attempts to navigate the chaos of that first year as a new mom amid political turmoil.

In Susan Hansell's An Ocean of Bees,
four characters represent the human species in a post-apocalyptic future. How will they find their humanity?

We'll be at The Tank in midtown Manhattan (312 West 36th Street at 8th Avenue). We're tickled to death to be working with this fantastic space.

Hope to see you there!
