Audiences have opportunities year-round to enjoy free readings at CITY READS of original works submitted to us for production consideration.
Regional actors perform at various locations, particularly at well-regarded Books & Books, and CityWrights readings.
These informal, entertaining gatherings give audiences a chance to give feedback.
They contribute to our selection process, while allowing a work to come off the page with the use of actors and audience members, the two most basic ingredients necessary for producing a play.
A number of the plays produced at SUMMER SHORTS are discovered at CITY READS.
