Event

Looking for a chance to explore a new play outside of the classroom? Professor Cary Mazer joins us as we read his play, Dear Birthmother Letter.

What to expect:

This will be an informal gathering for us to read and discuss a contemporary play together. We are not performing for an audience but rather exploring the script in an active and collaborative way. Everyone who attends will have the opportunity to participate in the reading. All theatre lovers are welcome! No advance preparation needed!

RSVP here to let us know you can make it and receive the Zoom link.

About the play:

Ilana, who came to her family by adoption, receives a letter from Stan, who believes that he might be her biological father.  Meanwhile Leigh, a journalist, is seized with the conviction that her husband Harris is a serial sexual harasser at his corporate workplace.  As they learn what can be learned of the truth of their relationships present and past, they each  discover how they deal with loss, what they are willing to risk for love, and whether or not they can live with the continuing gaps in their life stories.

Inspired by Shakespeare’s The Winter’s Tale.
