Question 1

What is the play?

Accepted Answer

This month it is What the Dickens by Matthew Austin! The play changes each month. Sometimes we have a new play or an already published play. Information about the play will be sent out to all participants ahead of time.

Question 2

Do I need to purchase the play myself?

Accepted Answer

If we are reading a new play, we will send you the play which can then be accessed on a device. If you are not able to bring a device to the session, let us know and we will sort out printing! This month, we have the play script and can send it over to you.

Question 3

Will I get to read?

Accepted Answer

During the morning play read, we will do our best to enable everyone to get a chance to read. The afternoon session will involve getting the play 'up on its feet' in a loose rehearsal setting. Everyone will be involved in this as a performer or by directing a scene.

Question 4

I've never performed before and I'm nervous about coming. Is it beginner friendly?

Absolutely! Whether you're a total beginner or a seasoned performer, you are more than welcome to join us! You will be guided through each part of the day. The space is safe and the people are lovely and will celebrate and champion you throughout!
