Theatre Guild of Simsbury presents
A Season of Staged Readings
Mark your calendars to join us Sunday afternoons at 2 p.m. in the Simsbury Public Library for a variety of readers’ theater performances in 2019. From January through June, talented local directors and actors will offer a broad cross section of plays for your afternoon delight.
And we’ll always have cookies, too!
Staged Readings for April, May and June
Three plays offering questions to think about
April 28: A Feminine Ending by Sarah Treem, a dark comedy, gentle and bittersweet, directed by Laura Garger, 3 m, 2 f
An aspiring composer knows what she wants but not quite how to get it. Her fiancee’s career is moving along faster than hers, her parents are splitting up, and she unexpectedly reconnects with her first boyfriend. Will she ever get her life back on track?
May 19: Collected Stories by Donald Margulies, a drama, directed by Rosemarie Beskind, 2 w
An older writer agrees to mentor an aspiring writer, sharing intimate details of her own life that she has chosen to keep private. The younger writer then makes her mentor’s life the center of her first novel. Does a writer have the right to take a living person's experience and turn it into fiction without that person's permission?
June 23: An Interview with God by Ken Aguado, a comedy-drama, directed by Nick Parisi, 3 m, 2 f
A journalist returns from covering the war in Afghanistan to find his marriage shattered, a soldier friend struggling and in need of help, his own life falling apart. And then he’s offered a chance to interview someone who claims to be God. What would you ask?
Auditions for these productions are posted on this website as well as on our facebook page.
