Playreaders do exactly what the name says: it’s an interactive program where participants read aloud from plays, changing parts frequently so everyone gets a chance to bring theater to life.
November’s play will be Jon Fosse’s “Someone is Going to Come”.
Jon Fosse is winner of the Nobel prize in literature and has been called an “extraordinary ethereal force”. He brings an empathy to his characters and the world they inhabit and highlights the human struggle. His existential style shows the fragility of simply being.
In this play of jealousy, sexual tension and paranoia, a couple move to a remote, tattered old house by the sea where neither can shake the thought that “someone is going to come.”
Let’s delve deep into this moody masterpiece and let it haunt our dreams!
