The Department of Theatre Presents: Staged Reading Series

Directed by Emma Tibaldo

We will be looking at the world as envisioned by two playwrights: Alice Birch and Cole Hayley. The plays are experimental in form, both written in multiple short scenes, open to interpretation. These will not be fully realized productions; they will be imaginatively rendered staged readings (i.e. script in hand). The aim is to reveal the heart of the story, allowing the audiences imagination to be part of the process. These plays are squarely at our world and ask us to take action.
