PlySpace’s first playwright-in-residence, Adrienne Dawes , will share the first draft of her new play Untitled Adoption Play, written during her residency with PlySpace in Summer 2019. Untitled Adoption Play is a dark comedy that explores “adoption disruptions” and the evils of well-intentioned people. Audiences are invited to join a free reading of the play-in-progress. Dawes will be joined on stage by three local actors, Tyler Rainer, Zarah Shejule, and Jakob Winter. Following the reading, she will lead a short discussion and ask for audience feedback.

The reading will take place on Friday, July 12th, at 7 PM at the PlySpace Gallery. This event is free and open to the public, but RSVP is encouraged via Facebook. Doors open at 6:30, and light refreshments will be served. There will be a short intermission during the reading. This play has some mature content and language so is not recommended for children under the age of 16.
