Playreaders Circle @Central

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. 

December’s play will be Giant by Mark Rosenblatt

It’s the summer of 1983, The Witches is about to hit the shelves and Roald Dahl is making last-minute edits.  But the outcry at his recent, explicitly antisemitic article won’t die down.
