Greetings from JP!
‘Tis the rainy season. Prepare your umbrellas and take care on the road. It’s a good season to make a hot cup of cocoa and spend time with friends or family. And if you are observing the month of Ramadan, happy fasting from us.
Last month, we held our first play reading. We plan to hold more readings throughout the year, and we’d love to see you join. But what is a play reading and why do we do it?
A play reading is an event where actors read a script aloud together, without any costuming or other stage elements. The focus is to get a deeper understanding of the script, as well as to see the actors’ interpretation of text.
Last time, we did a play reading for 2:22 A Ghost Story by Danny Robins, led by our artistic director Andrew Trigg. We gained insight on how the play flows scene to scene, as well as the readers’ interpretation of both the plot and the characters. We’re glad to get positive feedback from the attendees as well, with many saying that they greatly enjoyed the script.
Readings don’t always end up in a production of the show, but it is still a vital part of the theater scene. It gives writers, directors, and actors a chance to hone their understanding of plays and what makes them work – or not.
If this sounds intriguing to you, stay tuned because we’re planning our next play reading. You wouldn’t want to miss this curious incident!
