It’s beginning to look a lot like…the last reading of the year PLUS a Holiday Social! Hilarity ensues at our staged reading Monday, December 16 of NETWERQ [Ep. 1-4. 9, 13], an original web series (comedy) written by Alesandria Mentari, story by Alesandria Mentari and Alison Chang. Festivities follow, at our annual Holiday Social right after the reading at Juniper (a block away from reading venue), with comp appies and door prize(s)!
Just want to watch and listen? Audience always welcome – the writers need your feedback!
Local creators in attendance. Reader casting on the day from 5:30 pm (arrive early/on time!). Script reading from 6:15 pm. $5 at the door, cash only (includes $2 Membership* good through the Sep 2019-May 2020 season + Holiday Social with comp appies/door prize entry).
Cross-cultural scripts and writers — for our cross-cultural community, and a borderless audience. If this is your reality (or you want it to be), this event is for you!
