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.

July's play will be "The Mountaintop" by Katori Hall.  It was Winner of the 2010 Olivier Award for New Play and a Broadway hit starring Samuel L. Jackson and Angela Bassett.  This surrealistic fantasy is about a chance encounter between Martin Luther King Jr. and a mysterious hotel maid who prompts him to confront his life, his past, his legacy and the plight and future of his people. 

Intrigued?  

Come and experience this play they way all plays are meant to be.........Heard!
