2021 Spring Virtual Readings
VIRTUAL READING SERIES
January-May 2021
Theatreworks presents a series of five virtual readings, featuring stories we are considering for production in 2021 and 2022. Each features a full cast of actors, who gather to rehearse with a director for fifteen hours, and then share a new text with our audience via a live-streamed reading.
