Beware the Ides of March! And get thee to Scripting Aloud’s next staged reading Monday, March 18, of two short scripts: SMOKE, an original one-act stage play (drama) written by Beau Han Bridge; and NIGHT TERRORS, an original one-act stage play (drama) written by Grace Chin.
Local creators in attendance. Reader casting on the day from 5:30 pm (arrive early/on time!). Script reading from 6:30 pm. $2 Membership* at the door, cash only (good through the 2018-2019 season).
