The reading of my play “Shadows of Men” is coming up in Fort Worth on March 29th at 7:30pm!
The reading is being presented as part of the third annual Original Works Series sponsored by Arts Forth Worth.
Arts Fort Worth is very generously hosting a number of readings this year – 8 in total – which shows their great commitment to the theater scene and emerging playwrights.
Many thanks to Altered Shakespeare for putting on the reading!
You can get tickets to the reading here!
I am thrilled to announce that my historical drama “Shadows of Men” is being given a reading at Forts Worth Community Arts Center by the theatrical group Altered Shakespeare.
Forts Worth Community Arts (also known as Arts Forth Worth) is “a historic and dynamic arts complex (that) boasts seven indoor galleries, an outdoor gallery, artist and performance studios, and office suites nonprofit arts organization.” It is managed by Arts Fort Worth on behalf of the City of Fort Worth and hosts a number of artistic events throughout the year. The mission of Arts Fort Worth is “to provide a quality event, visual and performing arts venue for all of the community.”
Among the events hosted by Arts Forth Worth is their Original Works series for new plays. The series showcases a number of plays via readings over the course of a month and chooses one of the plays for a fully realized stage production in the subsequent season. The Original Works Series is now in its third year and provides a great opportunity for playwrights to have their voices heard, especially after the ravages of COVID on the theater world.
“Shadows of Men” will be presented by Altered Shakespeare, a new theater troupe in Dallas, Texas which engages in newer, more contemporary presentations of Shakespeare’s plays (although actually harnessing back to the way those plays were meant to be performed, in louder, rowdier, more raucous environments.)
Many thanks to Arts Fort Worth and Jason Levya, their Production Manager, for this great opportunity!
More to come!
